I use the cat command to concatenate text files, but one of the rows I was expecting doesn't display in the output file. Is there a verbose mode\logging mechanism for the cat command to help me investigate where the lines I was expecting are going??
to concatenate files.
one of the files 7760-001_1_67_06_2008-02-09t14x54x52.txt contains the following rows (I've cut down the number of columns and inserted string '[null]' for clarity)
A~ZAPPA~Baby of Gigi~[null]~Miss~20080209~20120628
A~ZAPPA~KIM ~[null]~Miss~20120628~20120628
L~ZAPPA~Kim ~[null]~Miss~20120628~[null]
Only 2 of the rows I was expecting make it to the 06.out file (the top 2)
A~ZAPPA~Baby of Gigi~[null]~Miss~20080209~20120628
A~ZAPPA~KIM ~[null]~Miss~20120628~20120628
I don't really know where to begin with this one, or if I've provided enough information.

Hello,
I'm on a remote computer by SSH. How can I get the output of "cat file" into a file on the local computer?
I cannot use scp, because it's blocked.
something like:
ssh root@remote_maschine "cat /file" > /locale_machine/file
