Merging Multiple text files - Is it possible?

I have about 200 text files that I want to merge all of them into one single file without having to copy/paste each file. Does TextPad have the features to do this?

In textpad use context popup (right click) and select Insert, Files

or use the dos command

copy /b file1+file2+file3 target

(the /b is to avoid Ctrl-Z being written at end of file)

I found answer: In textpad use context popup (right click) and select Insert, Files

I tested it. It is working for maximum 112 files ! In case of bigger quantity, inserting is not working. Can somebody help me ? I want to merge 1000 files.
