pycat
%pycat: Show a syntax-highlighted file through a pager.
%pycat
is very similar to the cat
utility, which will read a file and write it to standard output, but additionally assumes the file is written in Python, and will show it with syntax highlighting. The command can take a local filename, a URL, a %history
range, or a %macro
.
%pycat my_file.py
%pycat https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ehamiter/pindead/master/pindead.py
%pycat 16-23
%pycat my_macro
