NAME
cat, read - catenate files
SYNOPSIS
cat [ file ... ] read [ file ]
DESCRIPTION
Cat reads each file in sequence and writes it on the standard output. Thus cat file prints a file and cat file1 file2 >file3 concatenates the first two files and places the result on the third. If no file is given, cat reads from the standard input. Output is buffered in blocks matching the input. Read copies one line from the named file to standard output. It is useful in interactive rc(1) scripts.
