Concatenating Columns from seperate files--- HELP!

[sc0rpi0n]

Hey guys,

Very simple I would assume, but I just can't seem to find the answer.

Here goes.

File1 has 1 column with text
File2 has 1 column with text

I want to take file1/column1/line1 and append it in file2/column1/line1
and so on for line2 to line2 etc...

Here is an example.

File1:
--------
John
Mary
Dan

File2:
--------
Doe
Poppins
Scott

Results file:
------------
John Doe
Mary Poppins
Dan Scott

Much appreciate for the help guys!

You can use paste.

paste file1 file2 and then redirect output to another file if needed

Try: man paste
