This is also available under *nix (which is where the idea for many of the ppt programs came from IIRC). However, watch for the number of open files. 200 may be approaching the per user, or per process limit on some machines / OS.

If paste does what I think it does, it will open all of the files and then pull a line from each in a loop.
