obtuse shell scripting in profiling docs
Hi! I'm looking at this page:
http://haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/users_guide/hp2ps.html
I see a shell command like this:
head -`fgrep -n END_SAMPLE FOO.hp | tail -1 | cut -d :
-f 1` FOO.hp \
| hp2ps > FOO.ps
It looks like a complex way of saying:
grep END_SAMPLE FOO.hp | hp2ps > FOO.ps
The mantra is repeated a few times in that section, and
(assuming I'm not missing something) should be
simplified in each place.
