Something more if you are using GCG version 8. List files must
start with .. (two periods). Therefore, you should either:
1) edit the file you created as told by Mathew Woodwark
or
2) start by creating the file seq.fil:
cat > seq.fil [return]
.. [return]
^D
then append the output of ls:
ls *.seq >> seq.fil
