Assuming Thomas' script did the catenate the files, ensure that each of the columns
has a header; for example "structure, mass" as in the example.csv attached below.
(An extension .txt equally will be recognized sucessfully by DataWarrior. If working
in Linux, DataWarrior will trade well with the file regardless if the line ending
is encoded in dos, or unix convention, too.)
Then open either by shortcut Ctrl + O, or in the menue File -> Open the directory
and eventually the .csv in question. While reading the file, DataWarrior converts
automatically the structure string to populate an additional column.
Do not forget to explicitly instruct DataWarrior to save the read as .dwar.

you might use a DataWarrior macro to open the csv-file, append the template, save the file and quit DataWarrior (as shown below). Then use a Linux loop to mv one file after another into another working directory, apply the macro and rename and move the saved file back. Assuming, your csv files are in /home/thomas/csv and we use a working directory /home/thomas/test that contains the template t.dwat and convert.dwam, then it would look like this:
cd /home/thomas/csv
for FILE in *.csv ; do (mv "$FILE" ../test/t.csv; /opt/datawarrior/datawarrior ../test/convert.dwam; mv ../test/t.dwar "$FILE".dwar); done
this goes into the convert.dwam:
<macro name="convert">
<task name="openFile">
fileName=/home/thomas/test/t.csv
</task>
<task name="openAndApplyTemplate">
fileName=/home/thomas/test/t.dwat
</task>
<task name="saveFileAs">
fileName=/home/thomas/test/t.dwar
</task>
<task name="exitProgram">
saveChanges=yes
</task>
</macro>
