Hello,
three days ago I posted a followup to this group - no, it was no late april
fool. We have a (not the only) bug in our vms-news-system which will evaluate
every string between double-quotes while posting it to the forward machine.
On the local machine it looks ok.

*** Please substitute every back-quote by a double-quote. ***

			--------- once again ----------
> $ module = `2` + `2`
> $ library/extract='module' fortune.tlb

is the same as $ library/extract=`22` fortune.tlb

But back to your problem: Just try
  $ library/extract ``2` + `2`` fortune.tlb

Hope this helps.

Cheers, Elmar
