+.TH CAT 1
+.SH NAME
+cat \- catenate and print
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B cat
+[
+.B \-u
+] file ...
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.I Cat
+reads each
+.I file
+in sequence and writes it on the standard output.
+Thus
+.IP
+cat file
+.LP
+prints the file and
+.IP
+cat file1 file2 >file3
+.LP
+concatenates the first two files and places the result
+on the third.
+.PP
+If no
+.I file
+is given, or if the argument `\-' is encountered,
+.I cat 
+reads from the standard input.
+Output is buffered in 512-byte blocks unless the
+standard output is a terminal or the
+.B \-u
+option is present.
+.SH SEE ALSO
+pr(1), cp(1)
+.SH BUGS
+Beware of `cat a b >a' and `cat a b >b', which
+destroy input files before reading them.
