> According to the help for shell:cat, the - is supposed to activate cat for STDIN (just as the Linux cat command does).  However, the hyphen is being used as an argument parsing flag and hence isn't working:
> karaf@root> cat --help
> DESCRIPTION
>         shell:cat
> 	Displays the content of a file or URL.
> SYNTAX
>         shell:cat [options] paths or urls 
> ARGUMENTS
>         paths or urls
>                 A list of file paths or urls to display separated by whitespaces 
>                 (use - for STDIN)
> OPTIONS
>         --help   Display this help message
>         -n        The number the output lines, starting at 1.
> karaf@root> shell:cat -
> Error executing command shell:cat undefined option -
> It may be sufficient to remove the STDIN option from the cat command, I'm not sure how useful STDIN is within an OSGi command-line prompt anyway.
