Have several text files and want to merge into a single
Hello,
I have several files that begin with db. in my directory and I would like to first take it from a specific word starting from $TTL until the end of the contents then do the same all the way down the directory then merge them into one txt file.
Is this possible? I am using cygwin with perl installed and a slew of other add-ons
Thanks

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 (4 Replies)

PSMERGE(1) General Commands Manual PSMERGE(1)
NAME
psmerge - filter to merge several PostScript files into one
SYNOPSIS
psmerge [ -oout.ps ] [ file.ps ... ]
DESCRIPTION
Psmerge merges PostScript documents into a single document. It only works in the specific case the the files were created using the same
application, with the same device setup and resources (fonts, procsets, patterns, files, etc) loaded.
If the -o option is used, output will be sent to the file named, otherwise it will go to standard output.
Psmerge will merge multiple files concatenated into a single file as if they were in separate files.
BUGS
psmerge is for a very specific case; it does not merge files in the general case.
For all those cases which can not be handled by psmerge the program gs (known as ghostscript) may help:
gs -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=pswrite -sOutputFile=out.ps
file1.ps file2.ps ... -c quit
This is rather slow and generates bigger output files.
