NAME
bsdcat - expand files to standard outputSYNOPSIS
[options] [files]
DESCRIPTION
expands files to standard output.OPTIONS
typically takes a filename as an argument or reads standard input when used in a pipe. In both cases decompressed data it written to standard output.EXAMPLES
To decompress a file:
bsdcat example.txt.gz > example.txt
To decompress standard input in a pipe:
cat example.txt.gz | bsdcat > example.txt
Both examples achieve the same results - a decompressed file by redirecting output.
