[Gmsh] merge several partial meshes to a complete mesh

[Max Orok]

Hello Johannes,

Yes, these are two separate operations. You can merge files using the
-merge option on the command line (see picture of some gmsh --help output).

I think the default behaviour of just opening the separate files given no
flags is sensible, as you may only want to compare two different simulation
results or different geometries.

Sincerely,
Max
