In a shell script how can i append the contents of a file to another.
suppose if i want a.log contents to be appended to b.log.

i tried
print cat a.log >> b.log

and its just copying "cat a.log" into b.log instead of a.log contents.

Can someone help me.

Thanks.

Not sure what you are looking into.Just remove the print. it should work (contents of a.log is appended into b.log).

cat a.log >> b.log
