	Why is "cat -v" a botch?  If you want to see if you have junk in a
file it's a lot nicer than "od -c".  And what's so terrible about "ls -C"?
The multi-column format is much nicer, and it turns out that most of the
time it does the right thing (i.e. picks 1-column vs. multi-column mode).

	Oh, BTW, for you net.micro.att readers, note that I've added a
Followup-To: net.unix-wizards line.
