#!/bin/sh
cat "$@"
The "$@" would be expanded to all the script's command line arguments, individually quoted.
If this is an executable file called script.sh, you would use it as
./script.sh file
to display the contents of file. Or even
./script.sh file1 file2
to view two files after each other.
Though, it would be quicker just to type cat file on the command line. Or less file if you want a pager to view the file a screen-full at a time.
