Merge multiple Text (.txt) Files in a single one from the Command Prompt
Raw
merge_multiple_txt_from CLI.md
  1. Open a CLI terminal on the folder with all the file you want to merge.
  2. Copy and paste the following command:
$ copy *.html  output.html

This command will select all the text (.txt) files in the directory and output them all merged together into the new text file called output.txt which you can rename to whatever you like. Echo each new line after reading each file, as every new file written to the merged file will start at the end of the last current line.
