.* Example by TenFiftyTwo(c).

.* The following pipeline reads the file: TableData.txt and builds a two column HTML table

.* which it writes to the output file: Table.htm.

.* The input file: TableData.txt contains a list of the Pipelines Stage command HTML

.* document names and their corresponding usage descriptions separated by a (;) semi-colon.

.* The pipeline creates an entry in the table for each document name; decorating the name

.* entry with a hyperlink to the actual target document.

.* The pipeline is intended to demonstrate how you can specify multiple literal values that

.* are used repeatedly to build output records.

pipe (endchar ?)

     .* The following literals define the header record.

     literal /<table class=MsoTableContemporary border=1 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0/

     | literal app /width="100%" style='width:100.0%;border-collapse:collapse;border:none;/

     | literal app /mso-border-alt:solid white 1.5pt;mso-padding-alt:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;/

     | literal app /mso-border-insideh:1.5pt solid white;mso-border-insidev:1.5pt solid white'>/

     | b: fanout             .* Send out a copy so that we can determine eof.

     | a: fanin 0 1 2        .* Read all of stream 0 (the header), stream 1 and them stream 2.
