No-no-no-no:

A quick glance into the documentation reveals:

Therefore this OS/2 pipe is converted to plain ooRexx without
support from NetRexx Pipelines. Same for next one:

Again spec fs char is the show-stopper. Next one?

Forget it, no way! Two times spec fs ... Next one is:

Finally, the perfect candidate for NetRexx Pipelines, read a file
binary, sip off two strings from the beginning, convert and
deliver them to ooRexx, also the untouched remnant of the file for
further investigation. New thereby, maybe a challenge, are the two
strings and an unknown number of records returned.

But first I'll "rexxify" all skipped before I attack this one.
