cat is not complete. - Githubissues

Hi getgle/get52, when looking at the manual of cat there are a bunch of options that cat provides that your php rewrite of cat does not provide.

       -A, --show-all
              equivalent to -vET
       -b, --number-nonblank
              number nonempty output lines, overrides -n
       -e     equivalent to -vE
       -E, --show-ends
              display $ at end of each line
       -n, --number
              number all output lines
       -s, --squeeze-blank
              suppress repeated empty output lines
       -t     equivalent to -vT
       -T, --show-tabs
              display TAB characters as ^I
       -u     (ignored)
       -v, --show-nonprinting
              use ^ and M- notation, except for LFD and TAB
       --help display this help and exit
       --version
              output version information and exit

I tried to write in cat in python (I don't know how to code in PHP) and made some of these options. A lot of them are useless but the main actually usefule ones I think are being able to see a concatenated version of multiple files and being able to see a line count. https://codeberg.org/zortazert/Python-Projects/src/branch/main/gnu/pof.py
