This manual page documents the GNU version of hheeaadd. hheeaadd
prints the first part (10 lines by default) of each given
file; it reads from standard input if no files are given
or when a filename of `-' is encountered. If more than
one file is given, it prints a header consisting of the
file's name enclosed in `==>' and `<==' before the output
for each file.
OOPPTTIIOONNSS
hheeaadd accepts two option formats: the new one, in which
numbers are arguments to the option letters, and the old
one, in which the number precedes any option letters.
