What's wrong with sed rather than head + tail to read successive (single)
lines of a file from a cshell script?  Should be faster than head + tail.
Like this--

	#! /bin/csh
	@ x = 1
	while ($x < ??)
		sed -n ${x}p FILE | ..wherever...
		@ x = $x + 1
	end

Or the mailer mangle a previous message on this topic?
