If no files are given, I<standard input> is processed. A lone dash represents I<standard input> as well. =head2 OPTIONS I<cat> accepts the following options: =over 4 =item -b Number all the non blank lines, starting at 1. =item -e Print a dollar sign (B<$>) at the end of each lines. Implies I<-v>. =item -n Number all the lines, starting at 1. =item -s The I<squeeze> option. Sequential empty lines are squeezed into a single empty line. =item -t Display tabs as I<^I>. Implies I<-v>. =item -u Unbuffer output. =item -v Display non-printable characters in a printable way. Characters in the range I<\000> - I<\037>, with the exception of tabs and linefeeds, are printed as I<^X>, where I<X> is the symbol I<\0100> higher. I<DEL> is printed as I<^?>. Characters whose highest bit is set are printed as I<M->, followed by the representation of the character with the high bit stripped. =back =head1 ENVIRONMENT The working of I<cat> is not influenced by any environment variables. =head1 BUGS I<cat> has no known bugs. =head1 STANDARDS This I<cat> implementation is compliant with the B<IEEE Std1003.2-1992> specification, also known as B<POSIX.2>. This I<cat> implementation is compatible with the B<OpenBSD> implementation. =head1 AUTHOR The Perl implementation of I<cat> was written by Abigail, I<perlpowertools@abigail.be>. =head1 COPYRIGHT and LICENSE This program is copyright by Abigail 1999.
