HEAD USER COMMANDS HEAD
NAME
head - display first few lines of specified files
SYNOPSIS
head [ -n ] [ filename ...]
DESCRIPTION
head copies the first n lines of each filename to the stan-
dard output. If no filename is given, head copies lines
from the standard input. The default value of n is 10
lines.
When more than one file is specified, head places a marker
at the start of each file which looks like:
==> filename <==
Thus, a common way to display a set of short files, identi-
fying each one, is:
gaia% head -9999 file1 file2 . . .

ia% head -4 head.doc tail.doc
==> head.doc <==
