I use a simple command :

type labor.txt >> export.txt

The problem I have is that I need a Carriage Return for the last line of export.txt of before the first line of labor.txt. When I run command the first line of labor.txt is added to the last line of export.txt. Is there a way to use some sort a CR command that would allow my appended data to append on the next line? thanks!
