			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My old hoster had the habit of providing me with 20 Megabyte log file chunks that I could download to my computer. I did run a great forum back then that had lots of traffic and I always had to download several log files and combine them when they were downloaded on my computer. That&#8217;s one practical use for the software TxtCollector which combines text documents found in folders and subfolders that the user specifies.</p>
<p>The author of the software used it to combine reports that he received at work. Having one file instead of many has some advantages. It&#8217;s pretty obvious for log files but it also provides a better way of handling files when you look at the report example. It is easier to search inside one document than it is to search in several documents, it&#8217;s also easier to keep an overview.</p>
<p>Using <a href="http://bluefive.pair.com/txtcollector.htm">TxtCollector</a> is not difficulty. Just select a folder with text documents that you want to merge, check or uncheck the Include Subfolders option, select if you want to use a separator or not and click on the Combine All Files button. </p>
<p><span id="more-3562"></span><img src='http://www.ghacks.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/txtcollector.gif' alt='txt collector' /></p>
<p>The application runs on all Windows operating systems starting with Windows 95 and including Windows Vista.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you regularly work with textfiles you might find the software Txt Collector handy. Txt Collector is basically a text file merger which can be used to merge an unlimited number of text files into one. This can be pretty useful in many ways. You could for instance combine all readme documents of applications that you use into one text file for faster (no more where was that readme again) access or combine log files for better processing.</p>
<p>Txt Collector comes with some options to make the life of the user a bit easier. It may grab all text files from one directory plus all subdirectories if desired and combine them on the fly which is great if you want to merge many text files. </p>
<p>It is furthermore possible to add separators after each text file to see the end and the beginning of new text files visually. Txt Collector supports all Microsoft operating systems starting with Windows 95 up to Windows Vista.</p>
