Paste many files together side by side
Hi,
Thank you for your help in advance
.
I have thousands of files like...
file01
file02
file03
.
.
.
file6324
I would like to paste every other file side by side so it looks like
file01 file02
file03 file04
...e.t.c
file6323 file6324
In addition odd files has the following type of layout:
Preamble(Containing random stuff) (11 lines)
Data Table (11 columns all together) i.e
1 number
2 number
3 number
4 number
...e.tc
In addition even files has the following type of layout:
Preamble(Containing random stuff) (4 lines)
Data Table (columns all together 3) i.e
1 number
2 number
3 number
4 number
...e.tc
essentially joining tables together without the preamble jargon.
Once again thankyou in advance. Cheers

paste
PASTE(1) General Commands Manual PASTE(1) NAME
paste - paste multiple files together SYNOPSIS
paste [-s] [-d list] file... OPTIONS
-d Set delimiter used to separate columns to list. -s Print files sequentially, file k on line k. EXAMPLES
paste file1 file2 # Print file1 in col 1, file2 in col 2 paste -s f1 f2 # Print f1 on line 1 and f2 on line 2 paste -d : file1 file2 # Print the lines separated by a colon DESCRIPTION
Paste concatenates corresponding lines of the given input files and writes them to standard output. The lines of the different files are separated by the delimiters given with the option -s. If no list is given, a tab is substituted for every linefeed, except the last one. If end-of-file is hit on an input file, subsequent lines are empty. Suppose a set of k files each has one word per line. Then the paste output will have k columns, with the contents of file j in column j. If the -s flag is given, then the first file is on line 1, the second file on line 2, etc. In effect, -s turns the output sideways. If a list of delimiters is given, they are used in turn. The C escape sequences , , \, and are used for linefeed, tab, backslash, and the null string, respectively. PASTE(1)
