    I should have pointed out that the output will not get
    to you (the web client) obviously if you use |<shell
    command>| .. it does however get executed ...
    
    I mailed the output to a @yahoo.com address ..
    
    So an example to test it could be
    |id|mail+email@address|
    
    Surrounding it in pipes was the only way I could get it
    to execute, otherwise it would return open errors ..
