File Splitter

File Splitter is a handy little program designed to chop up large files into smaller pieces. This can be super useful when you want to share a big file, making it easier to download from websites or bulletin board systems (BBSes). You can choose how big each chunk should be or just name the drive where these smaller files will go.

How to Split Files into Exact Parts

If you want to split a file into specific sizes, it’s pretty simple! Just type this command:

SPLIT filename size

For example, if you have a large file named largefile.zip, and you want each part to be 1MB, you'd type:

SPLIT largefile.zip 1048576

This creates files like largefile.zip.1, largefile.zip.2, and so on, with each part being exactly 1MB.

Splitting Files for Diskettes

If you're looking to split your file so that it fits on multiple diskettes, this tool has got you covered too! Just use this command:

SPLIT filename d:

For instance, if you type:

SPLIT largefile.zip a:

This will create the first part on the first diskette and keep asking for more diskettes as needed until all parts are created. Each part will be named in order like largefile.zip.1, largefile.zip.2, etc.

Merging Files Back Together!

No worries about those parts sitting around forever! You can easily join them back together using a simple command:

COPY /B part.1+part.2+part.3... /B outputfile

This command appends all the parts into one single output file! So if you've got lots of bits lying around, don't stress—just follow this step and get your complete file back.
