When your data doesn’t fit in memory: the basic techniques

I usually use cat, because I often build a pipeline by starting with

  head filename | ...

then just change "head" to "cat" when I get it working, or grep if I want to check parts of a file, etc.

Likewise here, it maintains the left-to-right direction and "one operation per | gap |"
