Fails to be a cat alternative #22

Description

@nekr0z

tail -f some_log_file | cat works, tail -f some_log_file | gat doesn't.

yes | cat works, yes | gat doesn't.

cat a_file_70_GB_in_size works, gat a_file_70_GB_in_size isn't even worth trying (as you're reading the whole file into memory before processing).

Call it what it is: a console pretty-printer. It is in no way a cat alternative, not the same ballpark, not the same league, hardly even the same sport!
