+
+**What it does**
+
+This tool merges columns together. Any number of valid columns can be merged in any order.
+
+-----
+
+**Example**
+
+Input dataset (five columns: c1, c2, c3, c4, and c5)::
+
+   1 10   1000  gene1 chr
+   2 100  1500  gene2 chr
+
+merging columns "**c5,c1**" will return::
+
+   1 10   1000  gene1 chr chr1
+   2 100  1500  gene2 chr chr2
+
+.. class:: warningmark
+   
+Note that all original columns are preserved and the result of merge is added as the rightmost column.
