- NAME
- Asplit - split a file
-
- SYNOPSIS
- Asplit [-b buffer] -s size filein [fileout]
-
- OPTIONS
- -b buffer
-
- specify the size of the internal buffer. Default: 1024
- bytes. It's advised to use 1024 multiple values.
- This field is optional.
-
- -s size
-
- specify the maximum size (in bytes) of each sub-file.
-
- filein
-
- the name of the file to split.
-
- fileout
-
- the root name of the files created.
- This field is optional. Default name is the source
- file name.
-
- DESCRIPTION
- The file "filein" is split into several files of "size" bytes.
- Each filename is composed of the source file name if no "fileout" name
- is given, and a number, which indicates the order.
- The number of files is NOT LIMITED. The order of files is
- respected thanks to an evaluation of the digits necessary to code the
- order number, i.e., is you have 100 files, they will be coded from 000
- to 099, instead of 0 to 99. If you don't know why it's important, you
- should remember that the string "10" is alphabeticaly before the
- string "2"...So imagine the result of the concatenation of all the
- files.
