Let’s take a look in inhere.

[email protected]:~$ ls inhere -file00 -file02 -file04 -file06 -file08 -file01 -file03 -file05 -file07 -file09 |
I mean, we could just cat every file, but let’s assume there’s hundreds. It said there is only one human-readable file. Let’s use file to see what each file has inside. The * after inhere/ matches any file. So it’ll run the command on every file it finds.

[email protected]:~$ file inhere/* inhere/-file00: data inhere/-file01: data inhere/-file02: data inhere/-file03: data inhere/-file04: data inhere/-file05: data inhere/-file06: data inhere/-file07: ASCII text inhere/-file08: data inhere/-file09: data |
Looks like -file07 has what we want. Let’s see.
