If you want to print files side by side, you have to print them at the same time.
Like you python script in your post#1 does.
In the shell the "read" command automatically chops the leading end trailing space.
You see that it reads a line from file1 into variable L1 and simultaneously a line from file2 into variable L2. (Using two descriptors/streams that are opened when the loop starts.)
The echo command prints L1 and L2 side by side.
How to print file1 first then print file2 beside it after file1 has finished printed?
Need shell script to read two file at same time and print output in single file
Example I have two files 1) file1.txt 2) file2.txt
File1.txt contains
Aaa
Bbb
Ccc
Ddd
Eee
Fff
File2.txt contains
Zzz
Yyy

I have files named with different prefixes. From each I want to extract the first line containing a specific string, and then print that line along with the prefix.
I've tried to do this with a while loop, but instead of printing the prefix I print the first line of the file twice.

pr
PR(1) General Commands Manual PR(1)NAME
pr - print file
SYNOPSIS
pr [ option ] ... [ file ] ...
DESCRIPTION
Pr produces a printed listing of one or more files. The output is separated into pages headed by a date, the name of the file or a speci-
fied header, and the page number. If there are no file arguments, pr prints its standard input.
Options apply to all following files but may be reset between files:
-n Produce n-column output.
+n Begin printing with page n.
-h Take the next argument as a page header.
-wn For purposes of multi-column output, take the width of the page to be n characters instead of the default 72.
-ln Take the length of the page to be n lines instead of the default 66.
-t Do not print the 5-line header or the 5-line trailer normally supplied for each page.
-sc Separate columns by the single character c instead of by the appropriate amount of white space. A missing c is taken to be a tab.
-m Print all files simultaneously, each in one column,
Inter-terminal messages via write(1) are forbidden during a pr.
FILES
/dev/tty? to suspend messages.
SEE ALSO cat(1)DIAGNOSTICS
There are no diagnostics when pr is printing on a terminal.
