Hello !!

I have some text file to glue together;
I have been experimenting with following code
(where xxx is for Lines, Text, Binary ...,)
for a lot of time but it each and every time it
mess up the output file (splitting lines and adding
unwanted characters).

Please, can you explain the reason why ?

SetDirectory[NotebookDirectory[]]

fileList=FileNames["*.txt"];
fileNumber=Length[fileList];

For[
   file=1,
   file<=fileNUmber,
   file++,
     tmp=Import[fileList[[file]],"xxx"];
     str=OpenAppend["out.txt"];
     Write[str,tmp];
     Close[str];
]
