cat - concatenate files by printing them one after another

SYNOPSIS |
cat [files] [-]
|
---|
DESCRIPTION |
cat prints its argument files one after the other. The special file
name - is taken to mean the standard input; this allows inserting the
standard input in between a series of files. If not files are named,
the standard input is read.

EXAMPLES |
cat a b c # print files a, b, and c on the standard output
echo ----- | cat a - b # print a, a line, and b

NOTE |
This program is supplied for systems that do not have cat or some
other program to join a series of files. It is a bare bones version
with no options.
