ok, so :
1 - "strings of digits" are bytes positions from the final file I want to recreate. so what I call files "1" "2" etc are exactly in the same order as these string digits in filenames .
if one file is called 0-15000, and another is called 14400-30000, another is called 29800-40000 and a last one 39750-55421
, then it means precisely I want to create a file from byte 0 to byte 55421 minus the redundant bytes (14400-15000 are at the end of 0-15000 and the beginning of 14400-30000, and so on...)

2 yes ("just two strings of digits separated by a single minus sign")

3 let's call it 0-highest digit, or "final" it that's too complicated, I don't mind ^^

4 I'm afraid I'm too newbie to even know what are the different shells. All I know is I use my Xfce4-terminal on my Xubuntu 13.10 to type echo $SHELL , I get "/bin/bash" if that's of any help...

mdbfontsize

mdbFontSize(5)							 The m17n Library						    mdbFontSize(5)

NAME

       mdbFontSize - Font Size

DESCRIPTION

       In some case, a font contains incorrect information about its size (typically in the case of a hacked TrueType font), which results in a
       bad text layout when such a font is used in combination with the other fonts. To overcome this problem, the m17n library loads information
       about font-size adjustment from the m17n database by the tags <font, resize>. The data is loaded as a plist of this format.

       FONT-SIZE-ADJUSTMENT ::= PER-FONT *

       PER-FONT ::= '(' FONT-SPEC ADJUST-RATIO ')'

       FONT-SPEC ::=
	   '(' [ FOUNDRY FAMILY
	      [ WEIGHT [ STYLE [ STRETCH [ ADSTYLE ]]]]]
	    REGISTRY ')'

       ADJUST-RATIO ::= INTEGER

       FONT-SPEC is to specify properties of a font. FOUNDRY to REGISTRY are symbols corresponding to Mfoundry to Mregistry property of a font.
       See m17nFont for the meaning of each property.

       ADJUST-RATIO is an integer number specifying by percentage how much the font-size must be adjusted. For instance, this PER-FONT:

	   ((devanagari-cdac) 150)

       instructs the font handler of the m17n library to open a font of 1.5 times bigger than a requested size on opening a font whose registry is
       'devanagari-cdac'.
