Excel does not handle more than 65000 lines. May be Libreoffice have a higher limit. You can merge two file on the command line using for example Perl: (put it on a single line) perl -e 'open A,$ARGV[0]; open B,$ARGV[1]; while( <A> ) { print $_; print "".<B>; }; print <B>;' file_a.txt file_b.txt > merge.txt You can add a empty line between each: perl -e 'open A,$ARGV[0]; open B,$ARGV[1]; while( <A> ) { print $_; print "".<B>; print "\n"; }; print <B>;' file_a.txt file_b.txt > merge.txt -- Seb, autocuiseur _______________________________________________ sword-devel mailing list: sword-devel@crosswire.org http://www.crosswire.org/mailman/listinfo/sword-devel Instructions to unsubscribe/change your settings at above page
