HJSplit manual To split a file: Press 'split' in the main window Click on 'splitfilesize' to enter the chunck-size Click on 'file to split' to enter the input-file Then press 'start' You will get a message when ready The result is a collection of files in the same directory as the original file. The extentions of the new files are .001, .002, etc. To join the split-files: Press 'join' in the main window Click on files to join' (only *.001 files will be shown) Press 'start' You will get a message when ready. In the 16 bits windows 3 version, the original file extensions (like '.exe', '.zip') will not be restored. The extension of the joined file wil be '.xxx'. So you will manually have to rename the joined file so that it will have the proper extension once again. To convince oneself of the accuracy of this program and its created files you can do either: 1 Create a checksum of the large original file by pressing 'checksum' in the main window. Split the file Join the file Create a checksum of the joined file Compare the two checksums 2 Split the file Join the split-files on the same computer press 'compare' in the main window and in the compare window select the original and the '.xxx' file. Distribution: You may freely distribute an unchanged version HJSplit on networks, CD-rom, etc. If you want to sell it commercially (charge a price for the program itself) you must have the approval of the author. Any suggestions are welcome, so you can influence the future development of this program if you like. However, I would like to keep its user-interface simple.
