Cat for connecting files broken down via HJSplit

Thanks to the blog post of Jed about why you don’t need HJSplit for Linux. I’ve never really had the need to split files nor join files until today.
So apparently when there are files split up by HJSplit and you need to put them together, you only need to use the cat command, as demonstrated on his blog:
cat split-file-name.zip.* > split-file-name.zip
In my case it was:
cat video-filename.* > video-filename.avi
So yes, there’s no need to download and install HJSplit if you’re just going to use it for the purpose of connecting them files. 
Nifty!
