+.TH CAT 1
+
+.SH NAME
+
+cat \(en catenate files
+
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+
+cat
+.RB ( -hu )
+.RB ( file... )
+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+
+Cat prints the contents of file arguments, one after the other.
+.PP
+The
+.B -h
+option prints the usage synopsis.
+
+.SH BUFFERING
+
+Output is not buffered.
+.PP
+The
+.B -u
+option that typically guarantees that output is not buffered is a no-op within this program,
+and is included for compatibility with other implementations of cat(1) as well as the POSIX.1 standard.
+
+.SH DIAGNOSTICS
+
+Cat prints an error message and exits with the appropriate status from sysexits(3) if it encounters an error.
+
+.SH BUGS
+
+"Catenate" and "concatenate" mean the same thing in the English language.
+
+.SH STANDARDS
+
+Cat functions as described in POSIX.1-2017.
+
+.SH COPYRIGHT
+
+Public domain.
