Other Help Topics :: splitter programs
Anyone know of a program for joining/splitting files that works with dsl.
Something like mastersplitter.
Thanks
There is a splitter/joiner built in to dsl
split and cat - file split and rejoin for floppy storage. in fm type split or cat --help for info. click the directory the files are in.
ie: split -b 1380000 /home/dsl/eboard.dsl chess
this should give chessaa, chessab, chessac.
ie: cat chessaa chessab chessac > eboard.dsl
this should give eboard.dsl
Note: you may want to test join before storage. if the file size is not correct try refresh by exiting the directory and reopening..
I have used this to split many extensions and copied to another machine aswell as saved on floppy, then copied back, cat and installed..do not be in a rush, if the file was actually copied then you should have no issues, there is no graphic like windows so just wait 30secs..the floppy and hd lites will help get a grip on time. file size is relative
if that helps
