One of our websites has books for download with compressed files as large as 60MB, so we like to gte two options 1) the whole file for fast download connections and then 2) a split file like 10 separate at 6MB each for slower connections. We have that ability under windoze suing a splitter and a DOS batch file to put back together.... so, I've been looking for this for the occasional UNIX-only user.... hope it works! Thanks! You made my day if so.
