tcpcat(1)
π NAME π
okay so bestie, welcome to the tcpcat(1) page from the General Commands Manual β the manual name is folded in right here at the top, and we are about to make a remote host spill its data. π
tcpcatβ prints data from a remote host.
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
tcpcat host port
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
here's the whole vibe: tcpcat connects to port on host. then it prints any data it receives. that's it. that's the main character behavior. π
and yes, tcpcat can be used to transfer binary data. it does no conversions β literally none, no cap. π«Ά
