documentation
"
    A stream duplicator - everything written onto a splittingWriteStream
    is written to two real streams.
    Useful, if you have to send something to two files/destinations
    simultaneously, and do not want to (or cannot) buffer it.
    Especially useful, to generate a checksum, 
    while sending something to a file 
    (if one of the output streams is a checksummer).
