Publisher's Description:

File Splitter - Split large text/html files into smaller files. I find it

much faster and more accurate than cut and paste.

You embed commands in the big file telling it which pieces

of it are to go where, then let Splitter do the work. It is

much faster and more accurate than trying to select huge

blocks of text in an editor. You don't accidentally lose or

duplicate text. Keeping files small makes the site more

responsive.

In the following pretend that [...] are actually lessthan...greater than.

You embed multiple [split tags in the file to be split of

the form:

[split charlie.html]

...

stuff that will end up in the charlie.html file.

...

[/split]

The text between the [split xxx] and [/split] tags is split

off into that named file and the text is removed from the

original file along with the tags.

1. Filenames may be absolute or relative, with no quotes or spaces.

2. Tags may be nested, but they must balance (equal number

of [split xxx] and [/split]).

3. Tags are case-insensitive, i.e. may be lower or upper case.

4. Multiple [split xxx] tags may be directed to the same

file, where they will be appended.

5. If the files mentioned in the split tags already exist,

they will be overwritten.

6. Anything not inside [split xxx].. [/split] is retained in

the original file. Everything else is removed.

The file being split must be small enough to fit in RAM.

Java array addressing limits the file to 2GB, though other

considerations mean in practice the largest file you can

handle will be smaller still.

To install, Extract the zip download with Winzip, available from

http://www.winzip.com (or similar unzip utility) into any

directory you please, often C:\ -- ticking off the (user

folder names) option. To run as an application, type:

java -jar C:\com\mindprod\splitter\splitter.jar x.html

adjusting as necessary to account for where the jar file is.

Opinion

I tried a number of file splitters, and none of them were easy to use. I uninstalled Filesplitter 1.3 shortly after installation when it failed to properly split a 137Mb text file.

In fact, I tried to split a 44-megabyte csv file on a laptop with 1G RAM and it did not fit in the memory, so ... really don't know.

not very well engineered

It would be good if it didn't try to read in the whole file before splitting it. For bigger files it's useless.

No nonsense

Did what I needed it to do without any nonsense. A very nice tool.

Errormessage

I was looking for software to manage very large textfiles > 5GB. Unfortunately the File Splitter did not work on my files.
I got an error message saying: "Out of memory -
It is STRONGLY recommended that you forward this error message to InterPlan Systems for evaluation."
No email address was provided, so I didn't until now.



Author's Response:
Unfortunately, the current version of the file splitter requires the input file to fit in RAM. This limits to about 1 GB. It never occurred to me that anyone would be willing/able to insert the

The ideal approach when size does not matter

Does what it says it does - and quickly. Could do with a Help File.

It failed to work

A large txt file 1.15 gig, I asked it to divide by 2 and it crashed.

I have no idea how it works

This file splitter came crippled and only able to split files into 5 line blocks. Absolutely useless, in other words. What a waste of time downloading and testing this - I'm pretty pissed that this restriction wasn't clearly spelled out on the download page so I didn't spend my time finding this out. In the end I went with a Unixy split program that worked, didn't need a license and didn't waste my valuable time!
