Easy File Joiner1.3

Easy File Joiner is an application designed to help you merge multiple plain text and MPG files into a contiguous file. It proves quite useful if you want to easily join the content of several text files, such as the chapters of a manual, your mailing lists or the code for the different sections of your HTML project.

Drag files over the main window

Instead of opening each text file and making use of the Cut and Paste functions over and over again, just use Easy File Joiner and it will do all the work for you in a split-second. Load the files using the application's GUI or just drag and drop them to the workspace. Arrange them by dragging the files to the desired position and provide a name for the consolidated file before effectively joining them.

Poorly combining text files

The joined text file is a result of combining the text from all the documents you have provided. The inconvenience though, is that Easy File Joiner will not insert a space between the last and the first text line of adjacent files, thus creating a series of inconveniences when using the text in the output file.

Several details to consider

You must have in mind that Easy File Joiner only works with plain text files and MPG files. It does not support DOC, JPEG, BMP, AVI, MP3 or other file types. Something else you should pay attention to while using Easy File Joiner, is the fact that the application uses TXT as the default file type for the output file. So if you want to merge MPG files, make sure to provide the correct extension, or the output file will be a TXT.

Leaving a little something to be desired

Even so, from our tests we could not get a positive result of the application successfully joining MPG files, even if the files to join were similar in size, format and encoding. The repeated tests had the same result: although the output file's size and duration reflects the contents of the movies we used in the merging process, the video output was flawed.

To end with

All in all, given the fact that the application didn't receive an update for quite a while now, and the issue is still unfixed, you should use Easy File Joiner only as a plain text files merger. The idea behind the concept is good, but the method used to deliver it needs a lot more work.
