If the text between the start and end macro markers starts with an opening
curly brace (’{’) or is surrounded by back quotes (’`’), then
the text is handed off to the server shell for evaluation. The output to
standard out is inserted into the document. If the text starts with the
curly brace, all the text is passed off as is to the shell. If surrounded by
back quotes, then the string is “cooked” before being handed off to the
shell.
