Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users does head create new file Post 302353286 by pludi on Tuesday 15th of September 2009 04:19:38 AM

That's easy to test:
Code:
perl -e 'for($i=0;$i<26;$i++){print chr(ord('A')+$i)x40,"\n";}' > test1.txt
head -13 test1.txt > part1.txt
tail -13 test1.txt > part2.txt

Do you now have 2 files, part1.txt and part2.txt, one containing lines A-M, the other containing lines N-Z?
