[Chennaipy] Implementation of head using docopt

[harsha sunder]

docopt.txt is just a text document i made to try this program out. its
attached below. And yes, its printing the usage : the quoted string at the
beginning of the python script.
Im using windows 7, python 2.7, and the head.py script and the text
document is in the Python27 directory.the command i enter is

C:\Python27>head.py -c 43 C:\Python27\docopt.txt
and the output i get is

Usage: head [options] [FILE]...

  -c K, --bytes=K        print the first K bytes of each file;
                         with the leading `-', print all but the last
                         K bytes of each file
  -n K, --lines=K        print the first K lines instead of the first 10;
                         with the leading `-', print all but the last
                         K lines of each file [default: 10]
  -q, --quiet, --silent  never print headers giving file names
  -v, --verbose          always print headers giving file names
      --help             display this help and exit
      --version          output version information and exit

I tried the examples that come with docopt and they worked properly.
