Sed is the tool you want to use.

  sed -e 's/$/,on/' textFile >textFileWithOn


If you have several target files, do this:

for targetFile in textFile1 textFile2; do
  sed -e 's/$/,on/' "$targetFile" >"${targetFile}WithOn"
done


If you want to effect an in-place change, you'll have to manipulate the 
input and / or output files separately.
