You can combine 2 files easily on the command line.
Go to the command prompt and type
Type file1 >> file2
Works nicely.

I've been consolidating volumes of Braille from Web Braille into single units
for a long time. The method I use is a bit tedious, and there may be better
means of accomplishing this, and I'd like to hear about them.
Here's what I do. Assuming that you have a two-volume book, I open the second
volume using NotePad, edit out the title page and other extraneous stuff, then
copy the remaining data to the clipboard. Finally, I open the book's first
volume, go to the end of that file, and paste in the material from the
clipboard. I've never found a faster way of doing it, but it works and
actually doesn't take more than a minute or so per volume. I just performed
this action on Gone With the Wind and Theodore Dreiser's An American Tragedy
yesterday, both of which are quite large. For the two books it took about
twenty minutes, but there were more than twenty volumes involved all told.

Subject: [bookport] net library or CNIB e-braille files
hi list,
I am quite new to the bookport and am wondering if there is a way of making
multiple files into one. (I mean, I download e-braille books from the CNIB, and
they are mostly 6 or more files that you must download). Is it still possible
to go by page, word, etc etc, even if there are multiple files? Iether then
that I am thoughrely enjoying the unit. It is small, portable, and able to go
anywhere with you weather it be in your pocket or just in the palm of your
hand. Not to mension, I love to read.
best regards,
- Tyler
