bug#8231: Bug in the linux command: tail

User-agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; HP-UX ia64; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20051024

Tail with a line count option with multiple files fails.

For example:

tail -3 foo.txt
f
d
s

works, but

tail -3 foo.txt  csh.cshrc
tail: option used in invalid context -- 3

This works on HP-UX.


fails.

It fails on Ubuntu 10.04 and redhat linux (latest version).
