merge text files
Hello.
Could you please help to know the command to merge multiple text files into one?
I am thinking to use:
cat f1.txt f2.txt f3.txt > f4.txt
Is it okay to use cat command for same purpose - Or could there be any disadvantage in using it?
Thank you

file-copy ... -erase).
The source-ecaccess-file and target-ecaccess-file are in the form [domain:][/user-id/]path. Please read the "Shell commands -> File
Management" section of the "ecaccess" guide for more information on the ECaccess File System.
ARGUMENTS

target-ecaccess-file
The target ECaccess File name.

-help Print a brief help message and exits.
-manual Prints the manual page and exits.

ecaccess-file-move ec:test1.txt ec:test2.txt

ecaccess-file-move ec:test1.txt home:test2.txt
Copy the test1.txt file from the ECFS directory of the authenticated user to the test2.txt file in the $HOME directory of the authenticated
user, then delete the test1.txt file from ECFS.
