Cutting a file into several parts
January 26, 2011 by: Youzhny
Linux is full of utility tools allowing you to manipulate files. There is a very handy tool to split a file into several parts (for example to carry data on low capacity media).
The split command:
split -b 1440k my_big_file
The split command will create files named xaa, xab, Xac [etc], equal in size or less than 1440 KB
To recover the whole file simply use the cat command as follows:
cat xaa xab Xac> my_big_file
