linux - Paste two text lists (one list a file) into one list separated by semicolon

Question

An example of the process/output would be:

File1:

hello
world

File2:

foo
bar

Resulting file after concatenation:

File3:

hello;foo
world;bar

For a large list of non-predictive text (no-wild cards - but lines are aligned as above).

I cannot figure out how to do this with the paste command under Ubuntu.

Answer 1

paste -d';' File1 File2  >  File3
