I've found that Microsoft Word's Print Merge can be put to good use
here.  Set up a file like the following:

<<include TN-Stack-part1.hqx>>
<<include TN-Stack-part2.hqx>>
<<include TN-Stack-part3.hqx>>

where << and >> are generated by Option-\ and Shift-Option-\ respectively.
Then select Print Merge and print to a new document.  This effectively does
that cat parts*.hqx > file.hqx that you're looking for.  It can be a little
slow but I find it easier than copying and pasting the big document together.

Of course, you could also run A/UX and type cat parts*.hqx > file.hqx.  :)
