If you frequently find yourself working in the Linux terminal, you're probably familiar with cat, a widely-used command for file concatenation and display. However, if you're a programmer or someone who deals with configuration files and logs, you might want something more visually informative, especially when it comes to syntax. Enter bat - a command line tool that serves as a drop-in replacement for cat but with the supercharged features of syntax highlighting, Git integration, and automatic paging. bat is much like cat, but with syntax highlighting and a lot more features. It supports a wide range of programming and markup languages and integrates with Git to show modifications in the file.
