With no operands, tail now ignores -f if standard input is a pipe, as POSIX requires. + When conforming to POSIX 1003.2-1992, tail now handles some obscure + cases more correctly, e.g., "tail +cl file" now reads the file "+cl" + rather than reporting an error, and "tail - file" no longer reads + standard input. tee now exits when it gets a SIGPIPE signal, as POSIX requires. To get tee's old behavior, use the shell command "(trap '' PIPE; tee)". |
