For your first question, I would use a
simple shell script; not an alias.
Your second question, use "man -P cat ..."
which would change the "man" pager to the "cat"
command.
Your third question, the result will be that
"hh" will contain whatever "file" contains.
Now for the discalimer...
Since this is your first post, I'm going to
assume this is not homework. We typically do
not like to answer homework questions, at least
not without the poster actually doing some
resarch and attempting to find a solution
on their own first.
