Better yet-- just use good old "copy". That way it doesn't matter what sort of contents the file has.
copy file1+file2 file3 concats file1 and file2 into file3
copy file1+file2 file1 append file2 to file1
copy file* concat put all files file* into single file concat
In either case by using native Windows shell commands the concatentaion is very fast and very robust. "Execute program"
is wonderfully useful tool.
