Hi,
```R

```
What is wrong with the following Shell script that gives the error? If
you decrease the sequencing number from 50 to e.g. 10 the error might
disappear!
```bash
seq 50 | Rscript -e "cat(readLines(file('stdin')), sep='\n')" | head -n 2
1
2
Error in cat(readLines(file("stdin")), sep = "\n") :
ignoring SIGPIPE signal
Execution halted
```
It is already asked on StackOverflow without a good answer:
