Merge Text Files..

Post by aimy »

There's a tool called TXTcollector which is capable of merging of text files in specified sequence - http://bluefive.pair.com/txtcollector.htm

Is XYplorer is capable of doing this?

If not, don't u all think it's a good feature?

Other features of TXTcollector:
  • Grabs all .txt files from a directory and combines them
  • Puts directory-, file name and separator between each text file
  • Possibility to add your own extensions and separators
  • Popup list with files ready to be merged
  • Able to recursively search directories
  • Allows continuous merging (without Carriage Returns)
Text files here means all those *.sql, *.htm, *.doc and the likes..

Thank you.

What about looping through text files you want merge and use writefile() with append switch?

As for TXTCollector's other features, a cursory glance suggests that XYplorer should be able to do them with enough scripting wizardry.
