     @bugaevc @a1ba Of which 3 of those could easily be removed due to the formatting.
     
     Also just checked and Plan9 cat is even shorter: http://git.9front.org/plan9front/plan9front/06c482ecc7e168719718ba8e853261265b4a3cbd/sys/src/cmd/cat.c/f.html

     @maksim @a1ba I would, specially given it being a C program where headers have far-reaching consequences. (And I only picked the local ones, not system ones)

     @lanodan@queer.hacktivis.me @a1ba@suya.place I mean do we include libraries as cat's LOC count?

     • maksim :fire:
     @lanodan @maksim numbers were chosen for comedy because GNU implementations are known to be overengineered.
     
     And because there was a post about a man who sequenced a genome of his cat and uploaded it as a torrent, which is 30 gigabytes of data.
     
     The exact LOC of GNU implementation doesn't matter here because the joke was about the cat. Real meowing cat.
