Suppose strace LooseCannon produces 100 k lines of output but the user is primarily interested to see the first 1 k lines. strace LooseCannon | head --lines=1000 might work but waste time and resources. How can the process be stopped without losing the strace output and before excessive waste?
Thanks, ...
