Try:

     system ay & "; echo press enter to continue ; read junk"

See if there are any error messages displayed.

BTW, unless there is some compelling reason to use the temporary dummy 
fields, you could simply do:

     system "nano /o/o" { @qu { "/notes/" { 1

And I hope that field 1 can't contain anything like ";rm -rf /", nor do you 
have any qualifiers with non-alphanumeric characters in it.
