Prepend a string to every line of an input file... with a twist
by halyung from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5DFFD)
While this script works perfectly well, with a static prepend string, I want to use the contents of another file called prefix.txt to be used in it's place.
awk '{print "prefix" $0}' file
becomes
awk '{print ($cat prefix.txt) $0}' file
Is there a way to get this to work?
