Personally, I wouldn't go that far. Its output is ambiguous, e.g. ^X can represent a control character or two literal characters. If you really, really want to know what you're looking at, vis is a better choice (or od, hexdump, etc).
Also, due to its ambiguous nature, cat -v is a one way conversion. vis has the advantage of being revertable, allowing one to pipe data with problematic bytes through utilities which expect a text file, work with the data, then revert back to the original unencoded form (modulo any edits).
Yes, I'm aware that I'm being nitpicky
. I'm sure cat -v is good enough most of the time.
