- Print the contents of a file to `stdout`:
|
|
|
|
`cat {{path/to/file}}`
|
|
|
|
- Concatenate several files into an output file:
|
|
|
|
`cat {{path/to/file1 path/to/file2 ...}} > {{path/to/output_file}}`
|
|
|
|
- Append several files to an output file:
|
|
|
|
`cat {{path/to/file1 path/to/file2 ...}} >> {{path/to/output_file}}`
|
|
|
|
- Copy the contents of a file into an output file without buffering:
|
|
|
|
`cat -u {{/dev/tty12}} > {{/dev/tty13}}`
|
|
|
|
- Write `stdin` to a file:
|
|
|
|
`cat - > {{path/to/file}}`
