append? no! no! no!

append is like "path" but for data files.

that is, if i include in my autoexec.bat

append c:\borlandc\include

then in my editor i can open stdlib.h regardless of where i am and up
pops the file in c:\borland\include (which is a very quick way to get to
a file to look at it, grab text, etc.)

you want

xcopy p1,p2,p3,p4,p5,p6,p7,p8,p9,p10 together

to build one big file.

regards,
tom
