title: Removing a header in GNU/Linux
body: <p>I'm trying to confirm or not if I am able to remove a header.</p>
  
  <p>Let's say
  I have a file data.gz:</p>
  
  <pre><code>This line is the header Data
  Data line 1
  Data line 2
  Data line 3
  Data line 4
  Data line 5
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I want to remove the first line before I do a regular expression</p>
  
  <pre><code>gunzip -c data.gz | grep -v '^This line is the header data$' | grep -o 'Data' | sort | uniq -c
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Will this remove the header before I do second grep (regular expression) for data?  Is there a better method for removing a header in a pipeline?</p>
