Concatenation for the .bat file - 7/12/2007 6:48:21 AM

Guest

Hi,

How can I concatenate files using the .bat file. The concatenation is available for the window mode but what about for the .bat file?

Thanks and more power,
Aries

You can do this by using the /concat switch on the command line, i.e.

  c:> h2acons *.html /concat

The console version supports a number of switches. You can read a list in the documentation, but you can also get a list by using the help switch /? e.g.

  c> h2acons /?

gives the help messsage below which explains the usage of the command line options

C:\workdirs\h2acons\Debug>h2acons /?
This is the console vesion of Detagger 2.4.0.38

Usage : h2acons filespec1 filespec2 [policy_file.pol] [/qualifiers]

Recognised qualifiers include

 /CONCAT              Concatenate the results into one file
 /CONSOLE             Write output direct to console
 /DETAG               Selectively remove HTML markup
 /HELP                Display this useful list of commands ("/?" also works)
 /LOG[=filename]      Generate a .log file
 /OUTPUT[=filespec]   Filespec for output file(s)
 /OVERWRITE           May overwrite input files with the output
 /CREATE_POLICY[=filename]   Output policies used to a sample .pol file
 /SILENT              Suppress all output messages (except these :-)
 /SUBFOLDERS          Search sub-folders for files as well
 /TAGS                Generate debug tags in output
 /TREE                Output directory tree should match input tree

Qualifiers are case insensitive and may be reduced to shortest unique
name (e.g "/lo" for "/log")

You can also use the policy

  Concatenate results into one file         : Yes

in your policy file. You should take care not to use both the policy file
and the command line as the two could contradict each other. From
memory I think the value in the command line dominates.
