Mind that age!

This blog post is 12 years old! Most likely, its content is outdated. Especially if it's technical.

This is fairly obvious stuff I guess but it has troubled me for a long time. Some programs on Linux don't spit out their results to stdout. Instead they start a little program similar to less. So what is a console nerd to do?

Pipe it cat! I don't know why I've never thought of this before:

$ psql -l | cat
