Hi All!

is the following configuration supported?

```auto
input {
    pipe{
        command => "/usr/bin/stdbuf -oL /some/shell/script param1"
        type => "type1"
    }
    pipe{
        command => "/usr/bin/stdbuf -oL /some/shell/script param2"
        type => "type2"
    }
    pipe{
        command => "/usr/bin/stdbuf -oL /some/shell/script param3"
        type => "type3"
    }
}

```

I get weird results in the index when I add many `pipe` inputs.  
Thank you!

sorry, that seems to be working. The "weird results" were caused by a wrong grok filter.
