What about Linux Tech Tips?
I say... bring them!!
cat is actually used to concatenate files so if you have two files that you want to merge into a third one you can do
cat file1 file2 > file3
Especially useful for cracking old games
what?

I've used cat to actually concatenate files a lot to re-assemble old Wii games once they were copied to a SIM card, less than using it to see inside a file though. Maybe cracked isn't the correct word I'm not English lol.
Always remove the French language pack
never execute "sudo rm -r / --no-perserve-root" because you whole sytem will be gone edit i forgot the directory

option infind
goes AFTER the expression.find -delete [whatever]
