Depending on your implementation of cat, it may have some options to
display control characters and characters above 0x7F in a different way.

Well, cat *will* correctly pass all bytes [*]. I didn't think I suggested

to do with s///. Turning an in-place
shuffle into copy-and-shuffle is easy, the other way is impossible.

or Perlmonks with well, for starters following these
