Reading and appending a row from file1 to file2 using awk or sed
Hi, I wanted to add each row of file2.txt to entire length of file1.txt given the sample data below and save it as new file. Any idea how to efficiently do it. Thank you for any help.

Code:
input file
file1.txt   file2.txt
140 30    200006 141 32     
140 32    200006 142 33
140 35    200006 142 30
140 36
140 50

desired outputs:
outfile1.txt
140 30 200006 141 32
140 32 200006 141 32
140 35 200006 141 32
140 36 200006 141 32
140 50 200006 141 32

outfile2.txt
140 30 200006 142 33
140 32 200006 142 33
140 35 200006 142 33
140 36 200006 142 33
140 50 200006 142 33

outfile3.txt
140 30 200006 142 30
140 32 200006 142 30
140 35 200006 142 30
140 36 200006 142 30
140 50 200006 142 30

fipshmac

FIPSHMAC(8)							     fipshmac							       FIPSHMAC(8)

NAME

       fipshmac - create FIPS-140-2 validation checksum files

SYNTAX

       fipshmac [-d <directory>] file1 [file2 ...]

DESCRIPTION

       fipshmac will create FIPS-140-2 checksum files for all the filenames specified. If the -d option is not specified, checksum files will be
       written in the same directory as the file being checksummed. It will prepend a '.' and append '.hmac' to the original file name. When a
       directory is specified with the -d option, the '.' will not be prepended and the files are stored into the directory.

       If invoked correctly the fipshmac command will not print anything to the standard output or error. Otherwise it will print an error message
       to stderr.

       The -s option allows to specify the suffix of the hmac file names. The default value .hmac is used when this option is not specified.

RETURN CODES

       fipscheck can return the following return codes:

       0 OK

       2 Missing filename

       3 Cannot open the checksum file for writing

       4 Cannot read the file to be checksummed, or the checksum computation failed

       5 Memory allocation error

       6,7 Cannot write to the checksum file
