I like bat more than cat, not because it’s memory safe, but because it’s benefiting from the entire Rust ecosystem and provides features I enjoy that cat does not have. It’s not always security, but that’s always a plus (though I have no idea if bat is any more secure than cat). I can make the same statement about exa and many of the other tools that are getting better in the Rust suite of CLI tools.
