Bo,
Thanks for explanation. I'd like to make sure I understand what m is? Does
the m represent an output file or a file that contains the location of the
output file? Or a program that writes to an output file?
Thanks,
John

The data goes to STDIN, so the script that is running must read STDIN to get
the data. This is in contarst to simply having %{sVvt} on the loginfo
command line, in which case the file list will be available as a command
line argument to the script. However, the command line may get exhausted
sizewise if we use this for also specifying the tags (tag can be rather long
in some cases), so that is why the redirection (%<) is used rather than %.
