... I did not understand what the pipeline does ... The `\|` (pipe) character merely serves as a visual demarcation in the code example to allow the result of the operations to be better seen. Same thing as `$selected = $1 . " \| " . $2 . " \| " . $3 . " \| " . $4. " \| " . $5;` here.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
