Answer 3

If on Windows, you can run the cmd and simply display its content:

copy [filename] con

Answer 4

Just another thought - put it on dropbox or any other repository and write a Python program to display its contents from the web.
Then run it from Code Playground - any potential malicious effect will only affect a virtual machine which will be closed anyway ;) #likeaboss 😎
