  • Make tail use "==> FILENAME <==\n" format when printing output from multiple files; this conforms with GNU and OpenBSD versions
  • This is also consistent with the filename title printed by bin/head
  • test: same md5 sum compared to tail(1) on my Linux system: "perl tail -n 50 awk ar arithmetic | md5sum"
  • While here, delete dead code in parse_args(); $point is always assigned a default value of -10 at top of function

Nice. I like the consistency you're adding to PerlPowerTools.

changes: filename header for multiple file output now matches GNU and BSD, and the head program in PerlPowerTools
