How do I append lines from one file to the end of

问题:

Suppose I have two files:

cat
dog
baboon

feline
canine
primate

I want to append the lines from one file at the end of another file after adding a space. I know a way to do this using a for loop in bash, but I think there is a single command that can do this sort of thing, and I just can't remember it.

The output should look like:

cat feline
dog canine
baboon primate

回答1:

paste --delimiter=' ' file1 file2

Note: the result will be written to stdout. If you want to store the result in a file, use a redirection operator:

paste --delimiter=' ' file1 file2 > outputfile

Run man paste for more information about the command.
