        What’s the specification for how you would combine multiple files?

        I mean, I understand the general concept, but what I’m asking is, how would you specify the files to combine and in what ordering?

          I think you might be missing the point. The point is the plugin is gone and people use it.

          It was a simple concatenator that combined files in the order they were opened. The question wasn’t about how it worked or the specification though. The OP wasn’t asking for help on writing a new one, or other ways to do it. They were posting that it is missing.

            @cooddobettr You can download it from the ‘Way Back Machine’ here - https://web.archive.org/web/20210725153205/http://www.scout-soft.com/combine/

              @cooddobettr,

              Combine Plugin URL linked here gives a 404

              The domain that was hosting the Combine plugin (and several others) disappeared from the web a few weeks ago — even before NameCheap decided to evict all their Russian-owned domains.

              Domain name: scout-soft.com
              Registry Domain ID: 1376805404_DOMAIN_COM-VRSN
              Registrar WHOIS Server: whois.namecheap.com
              Registrar URL: http://www.namecheap.com

                No, I didn’t miss the point; not really.
                But there is no guarantee that plugins continue to get support, updates, or continual life in the form of sitting out on some website.

                Having never heard of this plugin before, and it not being in Plugins Admin, is not a great sign for it.

                So, if we know what the plugin did, or what the current need is, we can come up with alternatives.

                  With https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/nppPluginList/commit/cd0e660c0e7e475a1f1563252d6b53dca24a76b9 the plugins from http://www.scout-soft.com were removed. The sourcecode is not available and therefore it is not possible to make them available again via a github repo.
