Hi Michael,

The reason this won't work is that pqact doesn't invoke a Unix shell
to handle your command, it just invokes the command "uncompress" and
then hands it the string arguments "|", "crx2rnx", "-", ">", and
"/tmp/file.1". A shell is required to do I/O redirection or pipes or
filename expansions, so if you need these, you should put the command
inside a shell script and invoke that from pqact instead. You can
provide arguments to the shell script.
