Hi @brianmay -- can you confirm that @mitnk's proposed fix will work on your end? If you run ``` __xonsh_commands_cache__.threadable_predictors['cat'] = lambda args: False ``` in your session, does `cat`...

@brianmay or @mitnk -- question: does `cat` error out even when you are `cat`ing a file? Or just when asking for stdin?

And since platform-specific threadable stuff sounds nightmare-ish, maybe we can do a workaround on this by adding a python-based `cat` replacement to `xoreutils`?

apologies, that's *`xontrib load coreutils`*

Is there actually a use case for a bare `cat`? I mean, we want to eliminate bugs, generally, but in terms of priorities, is this error holding anyone back from...
