Various implementations of the 'cat' command, for comparison.
I turned this gist into a "real" repository. It is here: http://github.com/pete/cats .
Here, placed side-by-side for comparison, are GNU's implementation of
cat, Plan 9's implementation, Busybox's implementation, and NetBSD's
implementation, Seventh Edition Unix (1979), and 4.3BSD.
For good measure (and because I suppose I am now committed to collecting
cats) also included are Second Edition Unix (in assembly) and Inferno's
implementation (in Limbo) for good measure.
