This is a joke, is it? Can you literally just cat the image files next to each other?

It's a joke (afaik), cat only works for stuff like tar archives. Can't figure out what to use for text files though.

You use cat. It literally just appends the bytes of the two files to each other. It just so happens that the tar format can work with that

You can also use cat to append some video file formats together, but honestly use ffmpeg.
