I always wonder why people insist on doing
cat file | otherprogram
instead of just
otherprogram < file
Which is exactly the same, but saves processing time. Even DOS people
do this, while DOS doesn't even multitask .. cat file | otherprogram
is the same as cat file > tmpfile; otherprogram < tmpfile. Oh well
