NAME
cat - concatenate files by printing them one after another
SYNOPSIS
cat [files] [-]
DESCRIPTION
_c_a_t prints its argument files one after the other. The special file
name - is taken to mean the standard input; this allows inserting the
standard input in between a series of files. If not files are named,
the standard input is read.
EXAMPLES
cat a b c # print files a, b, and c on the standard output
echo ----- | cat a - b # print a, a line, and b
NOTE
This program is supplied for systems that do not have _c_a_t or some
other program to join a series of files. It is a bare bones version
with no options.
