where does 'cat' get it's info?
I know this is lame, but I don't understand it.
If I change to the /proc/sys/net/ipv4 directory and emacs ip_forward,
I see an empty file. BUT, if I cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward then
I get a 1 returned. So where is the info coming from since I don't see
it in the file when opened with an editor?
