Hi Dan, The correct way to do this would be like this:
::walk proc | ::head -n $[<n] Unfortunately, that crashes mdb... The head dcmd only accepts a string argument for -n. A good RFE would be to allow it to accept a number (and a good bug would be for it to perform some error checking; see 6556507).
