I'm not sure I fully understand what you want here. I don't see any
obvious transformation from your 4 input files to the output you
request, so without a better understanding of what you want, it's
hard to produce a solution.

Operating across multiple files in vim is not always the easiest
thing to do, so I'd suggest a quick external script in
bash/perl/python/ruby.
