UNIX commands for a script that I need
Hello. I need help trying to create a script in UNIX to do the following steps. I don't know which commands to input to achieve this.
1. In a directory tree, I want to duplicate all .txt files into the same directory, so 2 of each file exists in each directory where there is a .txt file
In the newly created files, I need to:
2. Change the extension to .dat
3. Remove the first 2 lines of text
4. Copy the first 8 lines from an outside, static file, and paste them into the first 8 lines of the newly created files
I don't know if the steps above are the right way to approach what I want to accomplish so I would appreciate any insight and help you all have to offer.
Thanks.

gencfu
GENCFU(1) ICU 50.1.2 Manual GENCFU(1)
NAME
gencfu - Generates Unicode Confusable data files
SYNOPSIS
gencfu [ -h, -?, --help ] [ -V, --version ] [ -c, --copyright ] [ -v, --verbose ] [ -d, --destdir destination ] [ -i, --icudatadir direc-
tory ] -r, --rules rule-file -w, --wsrules whole-script-rule-file -o, --out output-file
DESCRIPTION
gencfu reads confusable character definitions in the input file, which are plain text files containing confusable character definitions in
the input format defined by Unicode UAX39 for the files confusables.txt and confusablesWholeScript.txt. This source (.txt) format is also
accepted by ICU spoof detectors. The files must be encoded in utf-8 format, with or without a BOM. Normally the output data file has the
.cfu extension.
OPTIONS
-h, -?, --help
Print help about usage and exit.
-V, --version
Print the version of gencfu and exit.
-c, --copyright
Embeds the standard ICU copyright into the output-file.
-v, --verbose
Display extra informative messages during execution.
-d, --destdir destination
Set the destination directory of the output-file to destination.
-i, --icudatadir directory
Look for any necessary ICU data files in directory. For example, the file pnames.icu must be located when ICU's data is not built
as a shared library. The default ICU data directory is specified by the environment variable ICU_DATA. Most configurations of ICU
do not require this argument.
-r, --rules rule-file
The source file to read.
-w, --wsrules whole-script-rule-file
The whole script source file to read.
-o, --out output-file
The output data file to write.
