I'm hoping someone can figure out how to properly quote my signature
setting.  Briefly, I want to set signature to a program, files in a
directory as arguments, and finally a '|' to read the output of the
program.  For instance, I started out with:

set signature='sigmaker.pl ~/.quotes/*|'

but mutt seems to want to tree the directory as a separate variable.  I
stumbled on:

set signature='(sigmaker.pl ~/.quotes/*)|'

but that doesn't seem to have any effect for me.  Finally, I came up
with:

set signature='(sigmaker.pl\ ~/.quotes/*)|'

but the ~/.quotes/* is passed literally, and not expanded.  I've tried
using backticks unsuccessfully.

Any suggestions?
