/*
**  CAT -- "cat" a file
**
**	This function is essentially identical to the UNIX cat(I).
**
**	Parameters:
**		file -- the name of the file to be cat'ed
**
**	Returns:
**		zero -- success
**		else -- failure (could not open file)
**
**	Side Effects:
**		"file" is open and read once through; a copy is made
**			to the standard output.
