What about cat?
$ cat foo bar baz | tail # yields bottom of total output
or do you mean you want multiple columns:

for that, might try column(1) or paste(1).

On two occasions I have been asked [by members of Parliament!], 'Pray,
Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right
answers come out?' I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of
confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question.
