I noticed that using cat on a file works in ipython. It doesn’t appear to be listed as a magic command… so I am confused how/why it works. What lets cat work in ipython interactive shell?
catis one of the pre-defined system command aliases. Type%aliasto see the list of aliases in your current ipython session.
