I need a copy of the binary file /bin/cat
I called apple support and the server section is closed so I was wondering if anyone could help me replace the actual cat command file as I accidentally deleted mine.

I answered my own question by downloading the cat folder from http://www.opensource.apple.com/source/text_cmds/text_cmds-81/ and then compiling the cat.c file using gcc and placing it into the /bin folder as "root".
If you ever corrupt or delete a unix command (or are missing one or more such files) I recommend going there. It took me well over an hour to find the site (mostly because I had no idea what keyword to use to find what I was looking for) but a relatively short period locating the specific directory. It did take me some time to find the specific directory it was in as there were several posibilities.
