meta script results formatting

I have been playing with the meta script example for Webinator 2.5
and can't figure out a way to format (or unformat?) results that
contain HTML characters I want untouched.

Right now I have the "recexpr" part of the process successfully
returning the correct portion of a search page, but the results are
sent to the browser using the "browser safe" character formatting:
<table><tr><td>One
Result</td></tr></table>

rather than the real html so it can be properly displayed:
"<table><tr><td>One Result</td></tr></table>"

I am sure there is an easy way to prevent the character conversion,
but I couldn't find it on the website.

Thanks for the help

Try: <send $var>

It will send variables out verbatim.
