Guys,
I have the ASCII files of my novel, JOURNEY, in 66 textfiles.
[Named 00 - 66]. I have my word-processor version is the (urp) DOC
fmt to submit places and for me, when i play around with formatting and
typefaces and so in, in open format, ODT. I would like to put back the
huge text file into its 66 smaller files using split. Can I break this
very large journeyTowardtheDawn.txt using the regex
"Chapter [:digit:]{1,2}" ??
Or maybe just "Chapter " ?
thanks for ideas,
gary
