       standard input.

              print first SIZE bytes
       -n, --lines=NUMBER
              print first NUMBER lines instead of first 10
       -q, --quiet, --silent
              never print headers giving file names
       -v, --verbose

       SIZE may have a multiplier suffix: b for 512, k for 1K,  m
       for  1  Meg.   If  -VALUE is used as first OPTION, read -c
