interlaced awk ?

[Guy Baruch]

Hello scriptics and text filtering gurus.

I need to filter information from several text files.
Is there an awk-like tool which takes as input several files and filters them
in an interlaced manner ?

or a tool which interlaces text files line by line ?

Of course one can write such, but my guess this is such a basic capability
someone already had.

They hang the man and flog the woman
That steal the goose from off the common,
But let the greater villain loose
That steals the common from the goose.
