Hi Guyz!

I am new here so if this is not the proper use of the maillist then I am sorry. 
I normally think I know my way around shells, but this I cant get the below to 
work. And I am wondering if it is a bug I need to report on tail util.

I run this command on a file.

tail -f testfile | tr -d H | grep e

while I in another shell

echo "Testing" >> testfile.

If leave out "| grep e" I get the output. I have tried with xargs echo {} also, 
but I get nothing if I go beond 2 pipes. It works fine if I go through a while 
read loop.
