The problem with an action of NOOP is that the pqact file is still
processed line-by-line, so if you have
FEEDTYPE ^KWAL NOOP
FEEDTYPE (^K...) PIPE ...blahblahblah...
both lines would be "executed."

Couldn't you just put a pattern of KWAL in before the existing one
with an action of NOOP?

Paul,
Steve's regular expression, as he gave in his previous email, does ask
that the *first* character be a K but your original regex only showed
(K...). Steve's REGEX will work if you are asking for patterns
*beginning* with 'K' and followed by three letters or numbers, with the
exception of (^KWAL). Maybe this assumption is okay, but just wanted to
double-check.
