My life has become much easier since I started using the "bat" utility instead of "cat". Bat is a "Better cAT", offering significant improvements. I use it with other terminal file utilities to display file contents with syntax highlighting, especially alongside "#fd" and "#fzf".

Are you aware of bat? Anyone using it here?

Yeah, I am using it along with starship, tealdeer, ripgrep, zellige, lsd, macchine, bottom, procs, dust and such all on #Gentoo

Wow, except starship and ripgrep I do not know the tools you are mentioning at all! Thanks for tips, I will check them ;)
