Shameless plug, CLI for reading IETF RFCs. https://github.com/cy6erlion/ietf

$ ietf -n 1178

Alternative method for Arch Linux: Install the `rfc` package, then find the RFC at /usr/share/doc/rfc/txt/rfc1178.txt. A very nice package to have installed when travelling far from an internet connection.

That unfortunately has an installed size of 500MiB.

why not just $ ietf 1178 ?
