paste : combine files
The paste command displays several text files "in parallel" on output.
If the inputs are files a , b , c
- the first line of output is composed of the first lines of
a , b , c
- the second line of output is composed of the second lines of
a , b , c
Lines from each file are separated by a tab character or specified delimiter(s).
If files are different lengths, output has all lines from longest file,
with empty strings for missing lines.
Interleaves lines instead with -s (serial) option.
