Head Tail Problem
Use and complete the template provided. The entire template must be completed. If you don't, your post may be deleted!
1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data:
view the 7th line of the program xxx.sh
2. Relevant commands, code, scripts, algorithms:
head command tail command grep command piping, etc
3. The attempts at a solution (include all code and scripts):
(head -7 | tail -1 | grep xxx.sh) < ????
4. Complete Name of School (University), City (State), Country, Name of Professor, and Course Number (Link to Course):
GSW Americus, Ga, USA Baev, Csci 3200

Note: Without school/professor/course information, you will be banned if you post here! You must complete the entire template (not just parts of it).
Sidenote: The program has executable permission and it's output is a series of hexadecimal digits when it runs, but when I use head and tail commands to view the lines I get a bunch of alien-like symbols.

PODTREE2HTML(1p) User Contributed Perl Documentation PODTREE2HTML(1p)
NAME
podtree2html - translate a POD to HTML
SYNOPSIS
"podtree2html" ["--base" url] ["--css" url] ["--"["no"]"toc"] ["--hr" level] ["--bgcolor" #rrggbb] ["--text" #rrggbb] ["--variables"
values.pl] source dest [template] [variable=value ...]]
DESCRIPTION
"podtree2html" reads the POD in file source, translates it to HTML, and writes it to file dest. dest is created world-readable.
If a template file is provided, then template will be filled in by the "Text::Template" module and written to dest. Here is a minimal
template, showing all the variables that are set by "podtree2html".
<html>
<head>
<base href="{$base}">
<link href="{$css}" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<title>{$title}</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor="{$bgcolor}" text="{$text}">
{$toc}
{$body}
</body>
</html>
If the "--variables" option is provided, then the file values.pl will be executed with a "do" call before the template is filled in.
values.pl may contain arbitrary Perl code. The program fragments in the template are evaulted in the "Pod::Tree::HTML" package. Any
variables that values.pl sets in this package will be available to the template.
Additional scalar variables may be set on the command line with the variable=value syntax. Do not prefix variable with a "$" sigil.
Variables set on the command line override variables set in values.pl.
OPTIONS
"--base" url
Translate "L<>" sequences into HTML links relative to url.
"--css" url
Specifies a Cascanding Style Sheet for the generated HTML page. Here are example rules for all the different HTML elements that may
appear in a POD.
a:link { background: #ff8080 }
body { background: #f0f0f0 }
code { background: #c0ffc0 }
dd { background: #ffffe0 }
dl { background: #fffff0 }
dt { background: #ffffc0 }
h1 { background: #ffc0c0 }
h2 { background: #ffe0e0 }
hr { background: #ff0000; height: 5px }
i { background: #ffc0c0 }
li { background: #e0e0e0 }
ol { background: #fff0ff }
p { background: #f0f0ff }
pre { background: #f0fff0 }
ul { background: #f0ffff }
"--"["no"]"toc"
Includes or omits the table of contents. Default is to include the TOC.
"--hr" level
Controls the profusion of horizontal lines in the output, as follows:
level horizontal lines
0 none
1 between TOC and body
2 after each =head1
3 after each =head1 and =head2
Default is level 1.
"--bgcolor" #rrggbb
Set the background color to #rrggbb. Default is white.
"--text" #rrggbb
Set the text color to #rrggbb. Default is black.
"--variables" values.pl
Execute the file values.pl with a "do" call before filling in template. values.pl may contain arbitrary Perl code.
