Question
How to merge multipe text files into 1
Hi,
I'd like to create 1 text file by merging a number of other files. eg. for file1.txt, file2.txt, file3.txt i might write:
type file1.txt >> merge.txt
type file2.txt >> merge.txt
type file3.txt >> merge.txt
But i want the list of files to merge to come from another text file dirlist.txt (created using DIR /B > dirlist.txt)
How can i do this? I think i need to use a variable and piping? but i'm not expert in dos, pls provide working bat commands.
Thanks
