Combines all lines in two files
The below awk combines the target.txt with the out_parse.txt and the output is GJ-53.txt (all attached). If there are multiple lines in out_parse how can they both be writing to GJ-53.txt?

Code:
For example, in out_parse.txt there are two lines: 
13	20763612	20763612	C	T
13	20763620	20763620	A	G but only the first writes to GJ-53.txt

Code:
cd 'C:\Users\cmccabe\Desktop\annovar'
	awk '{close(fname)} (getline fname<f)>0 {print>fname}' f=target.txt out_parse.txt

Thank you Smilie.
target.txt (10 Bytes) 
out_parse.txt (50 Bytes) 
GJ-53.txt (25 Bytes)

Try:
Code:
cp out_parse.txt "$(cat target.txt)"
