Alright, so I was looking around a bit on the forum before posting and still don't really understand so I figured I'd post my own question.
I am appending two files using
The problem is that I need a blank line in between the two different text files and it does not do that. How can I add the blank line so it looks like the example below?
file_1.txt has the contents:
line 1 from file_1.txt
line 2 from file_1.txt
line 3 from file_1.txt
file_2.txt has the contents:
line 1 from file_2.txt
line 2 from file_2.txt
line 3 from file_2.txt
and after cat file_1.txt >> file_2.txt I want the output to look like this:
line 1 from file_1.txt
line 2 from file_1.txt
line 3 from file_1.txt
line 1 from file_2.txt
line 2 from file_2.txt
line 3 from file_2.txt
I'm thinking after looking around that it will be some sort of sed command.

If the second argument is a printable ASCII character, the driver places it in the current position in the current field. If it is one of
the forms requests listed above, that request is executed.
If the second argument is neither printable ASCII nor one of the above pre-defined form requests, the driver assumes it is an application-
specific command and returns E_UNKNOWN_COMMAND. Application-defined commands should be defined relative to MAX_COMMAND, the maximum value
of these pre-defined requests.
RETURN VALUE

E_OK The routine succeeded.
E_SYSTEM_ERROR
System error occurred (see errno).
E_BAD_ARGUMENT

E_INVALID_FIELD
Contents of field is invalid.
E_REQUEST_DENIED
The form driver could not process the request.

NOTES
The header file <form.h> automatically includes the header files <curses.h>.
