+ +

The `s6-head` program

+ +

+ s6-head prints the first lines of its input files. +

+ +

Interface

+ +

+     s6-head [ -S ] [ -1..9 | -n lines | -c chars ] file...
+

+ +

+ s6-head acts as the generic +head utility. +

+ +

Extra options

+ +

-S : safe mode. s6-head stops reading its input files right after +getting all the lines it needs. The rest of the stream can then be handled by other +utilities without any data loss.
-1..9 : equivalent to -n 1 .. -n 9.
-c chars : cuts after chars characters instead +of lines lines.

+ +

Posixness

+ +

+ s6-head is suitable as a Single Unix +head +program. +

+ + + -- cgit v1.2.3
