- The DOS equivilent of that would be:
-
- copy a.txt + b.txt c.txt
- -or-
- type a.txt > c.txt
- type b.txt >> c.txt
-
- There are also a few PD versions of cat for DOS running around that will
- do just what you want... I've got source for one around here somewhere
- that's ready to go with TurboC if you're interested.
