Synopsis: [PATCH] add -s (skip) flag to head(1)

State-Changed-From-To: open->closed
State-Changed-By: brian
State-Changed-When: Wed Jan 12 02:57:59 GMT 2005
State-Changed-Why: 
This will never be implemented (IMHO) -- tail has this functionailty.  The
originator should use ``tail +801 file | head +800'' to resolve their problem.
