About:
Lam merges several input files line-by-line. By changing the input or output line separators you can do fun things like interleaving lines from several files or making a simple template system. Lam can also pad or truncate input lines to given widths before merging. Lam is often distributed together with jot and rs (sometimes under the name bsd-utils).

The download link is to a source RPM package built at MIT. Unpack it with rpm -Uvh or unarc and you'll find a source tarball you can build with 'make'. The RPM spec files themselves are Athena-specific.
