Displaying the Contents of a File: cat, more, etc

To display the contents of a file, use the cat   command. It simply displays the contents of a file or several files on the screen (standard output):

 
               		  cat  file.3 file.1

However, if a file has more lines than the screen, it will scroll off the screen faster than you can read it. In this case one of use the commands more, less, page or pg.
