|You probably have to open all the files. Here is one way to do it

What about doing a mass upload to UNIX(R) (provided that they are plain, text
files (probably not, though)), catting them together, and then downloading
them back to the Mac.  I imagine that there is some possibility of screening
through the non-ASCII if the files are binary, but I suspect that the
likelihood of success is low, especially if the files are fast-saved native
Word format.
