[wpkg-users] Command with pipe character

[Ben Hartmann]

Hi Andreas,
try this:

"echo Yes | "%ProgramFiles%\OpenOffice.org 2.4\program\unopkg.com" add
--shared %SOFTWARE%\openoffice\extension.oxt"

I had this problem in the past, too. But with this modification all my "wpkg-scripts"
are running very well.

Bye,
Ben
