CountCAT

Cat out at given offset with given count/length in different formats

Why, and for what i need it

I have huge json and other text files and i have to look sometimes is

and so on. And then i have to look why. And for this case i wrote this
small tool.

sometimes this great command line tools are a little oversized for me and
and i like to code in C++. So why not a tiny tool like this to solve this
task.
