problem with 'tail'
 
I'm trying to skip first line with:
..| tail -n +2 |..

and it does skip it. But the problem is, if there is only one line, it doesn't give 'NULL' output.
How to skip first line so that there is no output if there is no second line?

But there is empty output. You have error elsewhere.
