Question Adding Text to Text Files [Batch Script]

Given two text files:
C:\INFO.TXT
XXX.XXX
XXXX_XXXX_XXXX_XXXX_XXXX

C:\HISTORY.TXT
TIMESTAMP
XXX.XXX
XXXX_XXXX_XXXX_XXXX_XXXX

TIMESTAMP
XXX.XXX
XXXX_XXXX_XXXX_XXXX_XXXX


I need a batch file / script that is able to do the following:
- Append a “.F53FLIN” to the end of the second line in the INFO.TXT so it looks like “XXXX_XXXX_XXXX_XXXX_XXXX.F53FLIN”
- Add 4 lines in the HISTORY.TXT file, a timestamp (when the script is run, now()), and a copy of INFO.TXT with an empty/blank line following it
So, in essence I am trying to write a script that adds the .F53FLIN to the INFO.TXT (second line) and a TimeStamp+INFO.TXT+BLANK LINE in the HISTORY.TXT (append to the end).

I have tried a few attempts but nothing is coming out even close to right, was hoping someone could help solve the problem.
Any hints, ideas, or help would be greatly appreciated,

LinuxPenguin: I don't have any working script/code, I can't seem to figure out how to append to a line nor can I figure out how to add the information into the history file.

A concrete example of INPUTS:
C:\INFO.TXT:
1.1
IBb_1.1_LM400_JA1.2.3_1A

C:\HISTORY.TXT
02/01/2006 8:33am
1.0
IBa_1.0_LM399_JA1.2.1_1A

02/20/2006 8:33am
1.1
IBb_1.1_LM400_JA1.2.3_1A

(the contents of the files are presented below the filename)

A concrete example of OUTPUTS after the script is run:
C:\INFO.TXT:
1.1
IBb_1.1_LM400_JA1.2.3_1A.F53FLIN

C:\HISTORY.TXT
02/01/2006 8:33am
1.0
IBa_1.0_LM399_JA1.2.1_1A

02/20/2006 8:33am
1.1
IBb_1.1_LM400_JA1.2.3_1A

02/26/2006 1:32am
1.1
IBb_1.1_LM400_JA1.2.3_1A.F53FLIN

That's it... hope it helps....

Well the problem is, we have an unofficial policy here: if you haven't shown proof of trying, it's considered homework, and we don't do homework (we can help you with parts of it though).
