Concatenate multiple files but include filename as section headers?

Question

I would like to concatenate a number of text files into one large file in terminal. I know I can do this using the cat command. However, I would like the filename of each file to precede the "data dump" for that file. Anyone know how to do this? what I currently have: file1.txt = bluemoongoodbeer file2.txt = awesomepossum file3.txt = hownowbrowncow cat file1.txt file2.txt file3.txt desired output: file1 bluemoongoodbeer file2 awesomepossum file3 hownowbrowncow

Answer 1

bundle

you need a script called BUNDLE

It uses a HERE document to bundle the files and uses the filename and EOF to

mark the beginning and end of the file.

TO unbundle the files you have to shell the file:

sh bundle

it then reads the filename and it's contents using the here document.

I will post it for you in resources...

look for filename bundle
