Thanks for the reply. But what if I have more than 100 files and the length of name is suppose 50 characters(includes the path).

---------- Post updated at 04:25 PM ---------- Previous update was at 03:35 PM ----------

I added 1 more command to replace new line with space
Code:
find . -maxdepth 1 -name "*.txt" -type f -print0 | sed -E 's/(^|\x0)([^$])/\1--GATKdepths\x0\2/g' |sed ':a;N;$!ba;s/\n/ /g' | xargs -r -0 ./xhmm --mergeGATKdepths -o ./DATA.RD.txt

But I get the following error :
Code:
xhmm: unrecognized option '--GATKdepths '

What is the reason for it?

irsend - basic LIRC program to send infra-red commands SYNOPSIS
irsend [options] DIRECTIVE REMOTE CODE [CODE...] DESCRIPTION
Asks the lircd daemon to send one or more CIR (Consumer Infra-Red) commands. This is intended for remote control of electronic devices such as TV boxes, HiFi sets, etc. DIRECTIVE can be: SEND_ONCE - send CODE [CODE ...] once SEND_START - start repeating CODE SEND_STOP - stop repeating CODE LIST - list configured remote items SET_TRANSMITTERS - set transmitters NUM [NUM ...] SIMULATE - simulate IR event REMOTE is the name of a remote, as described in the lircd configuration file. CODE is the name of a remote control key of REMOTE, as it appears in the lircd configuration file. NUM is the transmitter number of the hardware device. For the LIST DIRECTIVE, REMOTE and/or CODE can be empty: LIST "" "" - list all configured remote names LIST REMOTE "" - list all codes of REMOTE LIST REMOTE CODE - list only CODE of REMOTE The SIMULATE command only works if it has been explicitly enabled in lircd. -h --help display usage summary -v --version display version -d --device use given lircd socket [/var/run/lirc/lircd] -a --address=host[:port] connect to lircd at this address -# --count=n send command n times EXAMPLES
