.* Example by TenFiftyTwo(c).

.* The following pipeline selects '.ppl' files from the 'Processing multiple files' directory, and for

.* each file found, it launches the pipeline: Locate.ppl with the name of the string to locate; 'path='.

.* For the first record in each file that comprises the string, the pipeline writes an output record.

.* The pipeline: Locate.ppl, performs the actual search, this pipeline simply generates a list of files

.* to search.

.* This example is intended to illustrate how the Runpipe stage command can be used to launch another

.* pipeline with arguments that substitute stage keywords and argument values.
