1. To loop over the files matching a particular pattern in a given directory, you can use the for loop construct. For e.g.,
Code:
for file in *.log
do
    sort file | do_something_else >> newfile ## Append output to newfile. >> is the redirection operator (performs an append)
done

2. Also utilities like sort, awk (well, technically awk is not a utility, it's a programming language) can take a filename as argument. So it's a useless use of cat.

Let us know your progress and where you're stuck.
