Hi All,

I think I've found an issue when head is called with -n-0 parameter
It should return whole file but only seem to work for files with newline
character at the end.
For those that don't have it - it doesn't return anything.

BTW. I know -n-0 might be nonsensical but in my case simply pass the number
of rows to skip in a variable.

Regards,
Maciek
