Delivery to pipe from variable

2001-12-26 20:39:58
All:

Possible bug report from a user, I haven't looked at it yet.

Setting a variable to "| blahblahblah" and executing a rule:

  :0
  $THATVARIABLE

Does not fire off a pipe as you'd hope. Instead it delivers to a file
named "| blahblahblah".

Is this considered a bug or a feature?

  In 1998 more than three times as many people in the US were killed
  by incompetent physicians than were killed by handguns, yet the
  President of the A.M.A. is adopting "gun safety" as his platform.
