Should be foo | bar.
if:
bar > a;
foo < a > b;
produces the proper output then
bar | foo > b;
should work also.
What happens if you run the downstream stage in the perl
debuger:
foo | perl -d bar > b;
see what the input loop is doing -- or print the lines
as they are read. It may be a logic error in handling
of ^Z's.
