title: How to use a text file containing list of files as input for cat Linux command?
body: <p>I would like to use the cat command to concatenate multiple files located in different folders. I have a text file containing the name and location (path) of each file as a long list  (e.g. filesLocationNames.txt), and would like to use it as an input for the cat command. 
  I tried: 'cat filesLocationNames.txt | cat * > output.txt'
  but it didn't work.</p>
