Appreciate the info.

PS: Piping is just native unix so is certainly not limited to mutt or any 
program. I.e., I have my /etc/mailcap set to pipe html via lynx, wav and 
mpg via freeamp, etc., etc., so can do this in Pine just fine. 

But, I really hate those char statements, and I really hate slogging 
through quotes.
