I find the more command far more useful in general than cat. The
pagination makes a big difference. And there's also this:
That dpeneds on what you are doing. I have certainly used cat(1) to
catenate files to pipe into something else.
And of coruse on some of my otehr machines, CAT (or *CAT) a command to
prosduce a CATalouge of the files on a mass storage device.
Now for soemthing even more off-topic (if that's possible). Anyone else
remember the CAT and CATkin valves of the 1930s?
