One thing that would work, off the top of my head: open the old file in a buffer cut & paste the contents of the new buffer at the end of the old file. M-x apropos-command "append" gives me append-to-file. C-h f append-to-file gives me: append-to-file is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `files'. (append-to-file START END FILENAME) Append the contents of the region to the end of file FILENAME. When called from a function, expects three arguments, START, END and FILENAME. START and END are buffer positions saying what text to write. -- Russell Senior, President [email protected] _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
