Is there replacement for cat on Windows


I need to join two binary files with a *.bat script on Windows.

How can I achieve that?


Solution

  • Windows type command works similarly to UNIX cat.

    Example 1:

    type file1 file2 > file3
    

    is equivalent of:

    cat file1 file2 > file3
    

    Example 2:

    type  *.vcf > all_in_one.vcf  
    

    This command will merge all the vcards into one.
