Antoine -
Thanks for the prompt reply. The concat task works fine. I neglected to
mention that I was also doing token replacement, but it was easily done with
the builtin filterreader <replacetokens>. Nice stuff. You da man. Thanks!

could you rather see whether what you need cannot be implemented in terms of
filterchains/filters.
They are documented in the section concepts and types of ant.
The concat task is also a sort of copy with append, normally it can be used to
copy several files into one file.
What this task does not do is something like copying
A.xml and B.xml to AB.xml
C.xml and D.xml to CD.xml
...
in one shot
I am not happy to make the copy task more complicated. Just me.
Regards,
Antoine
