sudo apt-get install bat

Important:

If you install bat this way, please note that the executable may be installed as batcat instead of bat (due to a name clash with another package). You can set up a bat -> batcat symlink or alias to prevent any issues that may come up because of this and to be consistent with other distributions:

Docker Display GUI with X server

Displaying a GUI based application in Docker is typically a moment of stackoverflow search, for the sake of time, and for the reckless lazy ones, the easiest solution is to give xhost permission and then remove the permission.

ERROR: In /build/vtk6-VHOYAG/vtk6-6.3.0+dfsg1/Rendering/OpenGL/vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow.cxx, line 1475
vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow (0x563fbe453620): bad X server connection. DISPLAY=:1. Aborting.
