glxshell.utilities.cat module¶

glxshell.utilities.cat.glxsh_cat(files)[source]¶

The cat utility shall read files in sequence and shall write their contents to the standard output in the same sequence.

If no file operands are specified, the standard input shall be used.

If a file is ‘-’, the cat utility shall read from the standard input at that point in the sequence. The cat utility shall not close and reopen standard input when it is referenced in this way, but shall accept multiple occurrences of ‘-’ as a file operand.

Parameters:

files (list or None) – A pathname of an input file.
