cat blah >> newblah
This will cause blah to be appended to newblah However I really
don't think this will work with a pdf. pdf's aren't plain text... but

cat file1 file2 file3 >> newfile

either do:
cat [file] [file] [file] [file] ... >CSharp_LESSON12.pdf
or (cleaner)
for i in les*.pdf; do cat $i >> CSharp_LESSON12.pdf; done
I don't think you can just cat pdf's together though...
(headers etc.)

Hi List,
I've forgotten how to do something that I used to know how to do. That is,
using cat to combine a list of files into one single file.
The problem:
the list of files below, I would like to combine into just one file.
les_csharp_12_p1.pdf
les_csharp_12_p2.pdf
les_csharp_12_p3.pdf

combines some file
