EXPORT ASCII won't

[Jay Ashworth]

So I'm working on this export for a client a list member was kind enough to
refer to me, and my export ascii just doesn't seem to want to drop a file 
*anywhere*.

The manpage seems to disagree with itself whether a filename with no path
will be written `pwd` or in $PFDIR/fpmerge, but I've tried with and without,
and looked in `pwd`, in $PFDIR/fpmerge, in /appl/fpmerge, and in /tmp (when
I specified that), and I get *nothing* at all.

No empty file; no file.

dreport was missing it's suid bit, but I fixed that, and all the relevant
directories were 777 anyways.

I am running this -a on the table in question, and it's happily finding
2300 someodd records, and counting down through them. 

Yes, I used -y !!! and -z !!! in various combinations, and they didn't help
either.

4.5.... .05, I think.  Definitely 4.5 though.

::export ascii exp=inventory.txt r=\n f=|:
 then lots of
::exp(1)=1{"":
and a write exp at the end.

Tried using a different tag than exp, as well.

Table passes syntax check, and does *nothing* else.

Any ideas, comrades? 

Cheers,
