I sometimes use HOLE as an initial stage merely to simplify editing
of portrait-style pipelines:
PIPE hole ,
| append foo ,
| append bar ,
| append wombat ,
/* etc. */
... so I can shuffle/insert/delete stages with no worry about
pesky dangling "|" and ",".
(No, I don't pay for CPU cycles. And silicon is cheaper
than carbon.)
