SIGPIPE? How is that relevant? Does tail get a SIGPIPE, when awk disappears
in my example? If it does not, why do you bring it up?
And if it does get SIGPIPE, then you are wron

But why is that needed for tail to notice? It is trying to output 10 lines.
After it outputs the very first one of them, awk exits, and the 9 subsequent
lines go into thin air /withou

I finally got to opening a DVD I received for New Year and wanted to back it
up before watching.
I mounted the disk:
/dev/acd0 on /cdrom (cd9660, local, read-only)

total 8
