it is a very good question that should be answered.
for reference, the first example on p. 11 is:
# rule set for microsoft word documents
type is text
data matches '[a-zA-Z0-9_\-./]+'
data matches '([a-zA-Z0-9_\-./]+)\.doc'
arg isfile $0
plumb start doc2txt $data | \
plumb -i -d edit -a action=showdata -a filename=$0
it doesn't appear that plumber has had any changes
since the beginning of sources. does anyone with a
2e licence know if plumber used to accept rules
like this; that is shell script fragments?
