Utilites to Merge text Files

Post by asitagrawal »

Hi,

what are ways of merging 5 - 6 GB of text files, efficiently ?
Any special tools ?

Currently I am using windows TYPE command... but that is unable to scale up... Has also tried using Merge stage too.... but no luck.. :cry:

Please advice.

Get a UNIX shell such as MKS Tookit or CygWin. Lots of lovely tools there, even cat works better than the DOS type command, especially in terms of scaling.
