Consider your subscription done. But ... you didn't answer my
question. Assuming foo is cu [system]<$a, you've accomplished exactly
what I have. The hard part is being able to pipe all those files into
one cu. 

As an update, I tried

	cu [system] <sender

	where sender is:

	~$send.sh
	~.
	And send.sh is similar to what you described above (for a in
... cat $a). This seems to work, unless anyone has a better idea.
