Inspired by the deficiency in the split unix utility, which, possibly, splits a record across multiple files.

Written in C. Fork the repository and compile by typing make on the command line in the root directory of the project.

Usage

./rsplit [OPTION...] pathname-to-input delimiter-in-quotes num-of-columns

./rsplit [-hqsv?V] [-b SIZE] [-i[HEADER]] [-p PREFIX] [--bytes=SIZE] [--header] [--include-header[=HEADER]] [--prefix=PREFIX] [--quiet] [--silent] [--verbose] [--abort] [--help] [--usage] [--version] pathname-to-input delimiter-in-quotes num-of-columns

####DESCRIPTION

-b, --bytes=SIZE

put SIZE bytes per output file. Suffix the number with k, m, or g for scaling. Without scales
 default to megabytes. Default size if the option                           omitted is 20MB

-c, --count

Produce only the total number of records in a .cnt file.

The input file is not split.

If this is specified, it over-rules the split function and writes the number of records to file.

The filename will be that specified by the -p option or the default 'x'; with a .cnt extension.

-h, --header

 Input file has a header on the first line. If specified and header

   inclusion is not specified, the header is stripped off the output. 	If specified, the value read

   overrides that passed as an argument to the option        --include-header[=header_line]

   Default is input file has no header.

-i, --include-header[=HEADER]

Include the header from the first line. Default is excluded. If this option is specified

Without the optional header arg or --header included option, no header is written to the

output files. The number of records excludes the header.

-p, --prefix=PREFIX

Prefix to be applied to Output FILE with suffixes to indicate order of records. The default is 'x'

-q, -s, --quiet, --silent

Don't produce any output

-v, --verbose
