neuro storage cat

[dalazx]

It was suggested to have neuro storage cat to facilitate storage exploration.

Alternative solution is: supports - as alias of STDIN/STDOUT for output/input parameters. Example:

neuro cp --quiet storage://~/file.txt -
neuro cp --quiet - storage://~/file.txt

@shagren great suggestion!

A common workaround for programs that do not support redirection to stdout explicitly (via special name - or options like --stdout) is to use /dev/stdout as a target file. Unfortunately it does not work with neuro currently, because it requires a local file be a regular file.

@serhiy-storchaka , users like dash. When related PR will be merged can you add dash support also and maybe cat shortcut.

[serhiy-storchaka]

Maybe. This will need to add several special checks to prevent converting name - to absolute file path.
