Bug#697052: moreutils: 'pee' with 'echo' buggy.



Dear A. Costa,
dear Maintainer,

as soon as you delay the exit of the pipe's input command until all 
children of 'pee' are able to output the incoming data, everything 
should work as expected; the obvious example:

	(echo foo ; sleep 1) | pee cat echo cat cat

Modifying pee to delay the closing of the pipes would not be helpful.  
In my opinion it might be helpful to a simple further explanation to 
the man page and leave the sources as they are.

Kind regards,
Nicolas
