Hi Alfred,
Thanks for your reply.
Can cat -h be added as an alias of --help please?
Why? Seems utterly useless for --help, rather save it for something
that is potentionally useful.
The GNU convention is to support the short getopt, and getoptlong style
in many utils
for example, objcopy
-h --help Display this output
and strings:
-h --help Display this information
So why should cat be any different? Are doubt there are extra features
for cat which require any extra arguments as it comes from the POSIX specs..
Kind regards
JG
