Split.exe is a MS_DOS program which splits and recombines files into any
amount of parts. This zip includes source code in C.

I accept no liability for this program or any use its put to!

I wrote this program because of the need to split a 1gbyte file into three
and also because I have a file in 200 parts which required putting back
together. Despite having found countless splitting/merging programs, none
did what I wanted, which was to work on large files, split into different
size blocks, and recombine more than 100 fragments. This program is manual
you have to tell it which files one at a time, and of cause they have to 
be in MS_DOS 8.3 name style, but it will work were other splitters don't.

usage:- split [-start | -point | -end | -merge]

read the instruction which appear on the screen; but:-

-start     will split a file from beginning to a byte count
-point     will take a piece out of a file i.e. byte 1002 - byte 6789
-end       will split from a byte count to the file end
-merge     will recombine the file. Just one point here, it will ask
           for the names of the first two files to merge, then if you
           have a third, press return and put its name, if not enter
           a '.' to terminate and write the output file.
