uuMerge is a command line utility that can be used either to combine multiple text files into a single text file with a separator line between the contents of each file; or alternatively to process a 'merged' file ( previously created by uuMerge or other processes ) and recreate the multiple files. Files are separated internally with special delimiter line prefixed by "./ ADD NAME=". This odd choice of delimiters allows the file to be processed by the IBM mainframe utility IEBUPDTE. Alternatively, you can use the '-nice' option to create a '>>>>>>>>>> ' delimiter line instead so it looks nicer for printing. You could also use any text editor to do a global replace of the delimiter text to any string you wish. However you will not be able to use uuMerge to extract files at a later point. Usage: 1. Merge files in a directory to a single file. uumerge -merge indir outfile where indir is the source directory (with optional file masking) and outfile is the target output file. 2. Restore files. uumerge -extract infile outdir where infile is a input file previously created by uuMerge and outdir is the directory for the target destination Notes: Use on text files only - results are unpredictable otherwise.
