# append
This command allows you to append the given row to the table.
**Note**:
- `append` does not change a file itself. If you want to save your changes, you need to run the `save` command
- if you want to add something containing a whitespace character, you need to put it in quotation marks
## Examples
Let's add more cities to this table:
```shell
> open cities.txt | lines
───┬────────────
# │
───┼────────────
0 │ Canberra
1 │ London
2 │ Nairobi
3 │ Washington
───┴────────────
```
You can add a new row by using `append`:
```shell
> open cities.txt | lines | append Beijing
───┬────────────
# │
───┼────────────
0 │ Canberra
1 │ London
2 │ Nairobi
3 │ Washington
4 │ Beijing
───┴────────────
```
It's not possible to add multiple rows at once, so you'll need to call `append` multiple times:
```shell
> open cities.txt | lines | append Beijing | append "Buenos Aires"
───┬──────────────
# │
───┼──────────────
0 │ Canberra
1 │ London
2 │ Nairobi
3 │ Washington
4 │ Beijing
5 │ Buenos Aires
───┴──────────────
```
