[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1506088, member: 110816"] Are the .LOG file just text or something else? Can you open them in TextEdit and have them show something legible? If so, you can use a simple Terminal command to combine them all with something like: [CODE] cat *.log >> final.log [/CODE] For example [CODE] # ls -l -rw-rw-r-- 1 <user> <group> 4 Mar 28 12:39 one.log -rw-rw-r-- 1 <user> <group> 6 Mar 28 12:39 three.log -rw-rw-r-- 1 <user> <group> 4 Mar 28 12:39 two.log # cat one.log One # cat two.log Two # cat three.log Three # cat *.log >> final.log # ls -l -rw-rw-r-- 1 <user> <group> 14 Mar 28 12:39 final.log -rw-rw-r-- 1 <user> <group> 4 Mar 28 12:39 one.log -rw-rw-r-- 1 <user> <group> 6 Mar 28 12:39 three.log -rw-rw-r-- 1 <user> <group> 4 Mar 28 12:39 two.log # cat final.log One Three Two [/CODE] The reason I got One, Three, Two as opposed to One, Two, Three is that "*.log" is resolved alphabetically, so Three is before Two.. So in your case, to keep the things in proper order (if it matters), you want the files to be named/numbered in a manner in which they will show up in the order you want.. [/QUOTE]
