Hey, does anybody know is there a way to remove a file while read?

Something like: rm file.txt -o - | cat - ?

why not just read the file, then remove it:

cat file.txt && rm file.txt

Not that I understand why you would want to do this anyway; it kind of doesn’t make any sense.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
