Uses of Pipeline Pipeline has already been used in a number of different instances. The data can be the result of an extensive survey, or simply a handful of fields the user has filled out. Pipeline has also been used in a chat type situation, where the output of a form is processed, appended to an HTML page, and then re-displayed. An HTML form-creating utility is a good example of the use of Pipeline to make HTML pages on the fly. Pipeline has also been used to handle things like registration at conferences, and other form-based tasks.
Pipeline looks for the modules in the whitespace separated list in list order.
There are two quoting options available. This can be used, for example, to insert a space or a pipe character. Pipeline also provides for error reporting for both itself and any modules it runs. It checks if specified fields or environmental are set. If they are not, if reports this to the user.
