     NAME
	  Join - To combine upto 15 files to form a new	file.

     SYNOPSIS
	  Join f1 f2 f3	f4.... AS UltimateFile

     DESCRIPTION
	  This program combines	several	files into one larger file,
	  which	may be a device	such as	a printer or modem.  Like most
	  ARP commands,	it accepts wildcards as	its arguments.	This
	  command will alphabatize the wildcarded filenames before
	  using	them.

     ADDITIONAL	CONSIDERATIONS
	  Given	the added capabilities of the ARP Type program,	Join
	  is pretty useless and	could be dispensed with.  It is
	  included for backward's compatibility	with batch scripts.



     NOTE
          The one advantage of Join is that it runs a bit faster
          when you join large files.
