in thread read files one by one in directory and redirct output to a file
On Windows, I believe the equivalent to your Unix command would be:type *.log > result
No, it is not. type treats Ctrl-Z (ASCII 26) as end-of-file marker. cat writes its entire input to STDOUT. cat can handle binary files, type can't.
X:\>perl -E "say qq[Hello\cZWorld!]" > foo X:\>type foo Hello X:\>perl -pe 1 < foo Hello→World! X:\>
