+.SH NAME
+Inter-process tranport for 0MQ
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+
+In-process transport is optimised for passing messages between processes on the
+same physical machine.
+
+.SH CONNECTION STRING
+
+Connection string for inproc transport is "inproc://" followed by a file name.
+The file will be used as placeholder for a message endpoint. (UNIX domain
+sockets associate a file with the listening socket in a similar way.)
+

+    ipc:///tmp/my_ipc_endpoint
+    ipc:///tmp/prices.ipc
+.fi
+
+.SH WIRE FORMAT
+
+IPC transport doesn't transfer messages across the network thus there is no need
+for a wire format specification.
