First stable release, changed name to slimcat, house keeping

First Stable Release
--------------------
Used this program as a replacement of cat and I have fixed everything I have found

Changed Name
------------
Changed name from cat to slimcat so there is not a naming conflict
Use the makefile's unsafe-install to overwrite cat
but it is recomended to just add an alias to your shell

House Keeping
-------------
Updated copyright years
Made the code more readable
