     NAME
          paste - merge lines of files

     SYNOPSIS

          list] [--help] [--version] [file...]

     DESCRIPTION
          This documentation is no longer being maintained and may be
          inaccurate or incomplete.  The Texinfo documentation is now
          the authoritative source.

          This manual page documents the GNU version of paste.  paste
          prints lines consisting of sequentially corresponding lines
          of each given file, separated by TABs, terminated by a
          newline.  If no files are given, the standard input is used.
          A file name of `-' means standard input.

        OPTIONS
          -s, --serial
               Paste the lines of one file at a time rather than one
               line from each file.

          -d, --delimiters delim-list
               Consecutively use the characters in delim-list instead
               of TAB to separate merged lines.  When delim-list is
               exhausted, start again at its beginning.

          --help
               Print a usage message and exit with a status code
               indicating success.

          --version
               Print version information on standard output then exit.
