    In addition to cat command the following Commands namely more, and less let you view the contents of a text file from the command line, without having to invoke an editor.

    Command cat outputs all lines in a file at once. You may prefer to use more and less because they both output file contents one screen at a time. Less is an enhanced version of more that allows key commands from the vi text editor to enhance file viewing.
