DAFCAT (daf-cat) User's Guide
===========================================================================
 
     DAFCAT is a program for concatenating several DAF files of the same
     type into a single (new) file. For example using DAFCAT you can
     concatenate several SPK files into a single file; concatenate several
     CK files into a single file; or several binary PCK files into a single
     file. However, DAFCAT does not allow you to concatenate different
     types of DAF based files into a single DAF file. For instance, you
     cannot concatenate a C-kernel and SP-kernel together using DAFCAT.
 
 
Usage
--------------------------------------------------------
 
     DAFCAT takes a list of files to concatenate from standard input and
     concatenates them together in a new file that is listed on the command
     line. Thus if the text file "sources" contains a list of files to be
     concatenated together and you wish the combination to reside in the
     file "grouped.daf" enter the command
 
        dafcat grouped.daf <sources
 
     You can also invoke DAFCAT and type the sources to be concatenated
     together (follow the list by the end of file character). For example
     suppose the list of files in input "sources" above is "spk1.bsp",
     "spk2.bsp", "spk3.bsp". You can concatenate these together by typing:
 
        dafcat grouped.daf
 
     DAFCAT will respond with version information and a "blank" prompt"
 
        DAF binary files concatenation program version. 1.00
 
 
     Now just type the list of files to be concatenated together. Terminate
     the list with the end of file character (CTRL-D on UNIX and DOS
     platforms, CTRL-Z on VAX/VMS systems).
 
        spk1.bsp
        spk2.bsp
        spk3.bsp
        ^D
 
 
Other UNIX and DOS scenarios.
--------------------------------------------------------
 
     On UNIX and DOS systems you may redirect the output from some other
     command to the input of DAFCAT. For example
 
        ls -1 spk*.bsp | dafcat combined.spk
