Query about cutting of files

Hi,

Just a simply query and the solution at the moment is really escaping this newbie:-)

I have a simple csv file containing say 50 lines.

Now the first 15 lines contains some header which I am not interested in.

Is there any way via a shell script to cut the first 15 lines of the file so that I end up with the rest of it?

Cheers,
Freakie

Code:

tail +16 input_file > output_file
