My original problem was :
I have a file with only one raw of 1401 bytes name toto.ori
I made the command line:
head -1 toto.ori > toto.new.
The result file is only 1023 bytes
Many Thanks to:

The raison is:
there is a system-wide default limiting the size of a line to 1024).
The new file contains 1023 plus EOF.
The solution is to rewrite the command head to avoid this limitation.
