I think your syntax is wrong. You don't pipe to/from files, only between processes. To files, you redirect. <file reads, >file writes.
If you're using the windows CMD shell and not a real UNIX shell, "cat *.txt" won't work, * won't expand. * only works for a few special command like DEL and COPY in windows CMD.
You could try find, which will run cat many times and put them all together, but I don't think it will sort the names that way.
If you have a c:\wbin\sh.exe, you should be able to run it to get a real shell, and 'cat tmp/*.log' in that and get what you expect. "c:\wbin\sh.exe scriptfile.sh" to run scriptfile.sh from disk so you don't have to type a painful number of arguments into your system() command.

gzexe
GZEXE(1) General Commands Manual GZEXE(1)NAME
gzexe - compress executable files in place
SYNOPSIS
gzexe [ name ... ]
DESCRIPTION
The gzexe utility allows you to compress executables in place and have them automatically uncompress and execute when you run them (at a
penalty in performance). For example if you execute ``gzexe /bin/cat'' it will create the following two files:
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root bin 9644 Feb 11 11:16 /bin/cat
-r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin 24576 Nov 23 13:21 /bin/cat~
/bin/cat~ is the original file and /bin/cat is the self-uncompressing executable file. You can remove /bin/cat~ once you are sure that
/bin/cat works properly.
This utility is most useful on systems with very small disks.
OPTIONS -d Decompress the given executables instead of compressing them.
SEE ALSO gzip(1), znew(1), zmore(1), zcmp(1), zforce(1)CAVEATS
The compressed executable is a shell script. This may create some security holes. In particular, the compressed executable relies on the
PATH environment variable to find gzip and some other utilities (tail, chmod, ln, sleep).
BUGS
gzexe attempts to retain the original file attributes on the compressed executable, but you may have to fix them manually in some cases,
using chmod or chown.
