NAME
head - display first few lines of specified files
SYNOPSIS
head [ -n ] [ filename...]
DESCRIPTION
head copies the first n lines of each filename to the
standard output. If no
filename is given, head copies lines from the standard input.
The default value
of n is 10 lines.

I read this as "SunOS4 doesn't support 'head -n1', however I don't have
access to such kind of system anymore and therefore can't verify.
