sure, in the pager Pipe('|') will pipe the full RAW article to whatever you
give as command (i.e. "tr 'a-z' 'A-Z' | less"), once the command is done
(in this case you quit less) you'll be back in tin.

it's more likely that you want to use
PageViewAttach('V') AttachPipe('p') "tr 'a-z' 'A-Z' | less"
which will pipe the "current" mime part after decoding to whatever you give
as command.
