not worry you cat a dir
# Author: Esonhugh
# update date: 2021/11/28
#
# c is an alias for clear cd and cat
# c with no param will clear
# c with one param(file) will like a cat a file
# c with one param(dir) will like cd into dir
# experimental: if c has more params will cat this all like cat command (finished)
# logic is
# 1. clear and cd doesn't have second param. if second param exists must cat
# 2. if 1 is False, Conditions are param number is 1 or 0.
# 3. in condition (param num is 0)clear has no param just clear the screen in terminal
# 4. test the param 1 is file or dictionary
# 5. dic is cd
# 6. file is cat
function c () {
if [ -n "$2" ]
then
\cat $*
elif [ -z "$1" ]
then
\clear
else
if [ -f "$1" ]
then
\cat "$1"
elif [ -d "$1" ]
then
\cd "$1"
else
echo "\033[1m $1\033[0m is error name to file or dir"
