We need more details as to what you are trying to do, and why what happened didn't match what you wanted. For example, what is the value of $zZ in the instance of the 'head' run that didn't behave the way you expected? Is this part of a bigger script? Could the bug be elsewhere in your script, rather than in the behavior of head? -- Eric Blake eblake@redhat.com +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
