   As far as I can tell from the code, no (at least, not in the
version of OpenJade which I have, which is a little out of date).
However, here is a patch (untested) which should allow you to use the
-o option to specify an output filename of -, which will cause the
output to be sent to standard output.  This will only work with the
RTF, TeX and FOT backends, however.
   Let me know if it works. ;)
