# Mission Statement:
# This script displays the contents of specified files with formatted headers.
# It provides optional file size limits through the -k flag (specified in KB).
# Without the -k flag, files are shown in their entirety.
# With -k flag, files larger than the specified size are truncated with a warning.
# The script handles both Linux and MacOS systems using compatible stat commands.
# Color output is available via the -c flag for better visual organization.

# ANSI color codes
BLUE='\033[0;34m'
GREEN='\033[0;32m'
RED='\033[0;31m'
NC='\033[0m' # No Color
