@{u}@{fg shine}Introduction@{uu}@{fg text}
JSplit is a small tool for splitting and joining files.
It has some great features like:
- Fontsensitive GUI
- It's small, fast and easy to use
- It even runs with very few memory
- Predefined splitsizes for often used disk formats
- It's possible to get the splitsize directly from a device
- Multi-volume Split and Join
- Predifined name pattern for the splitted files
- ...
@{u}@{fg shine}Why I wrote JSplit@{uu}@{fg text}
Some months before I often had to split long files because they should
fit on normal disx (e.g. for sending them away).
So I started looking for a tools that could do this for me and that
could join the splitted files back together,too.
In the PD-Pool and in the Net I couldn't find a program that did this
in a comfortable way or they did need too much memory etc.
So i started writing this tool...

@{b}General@{ub}
If you've started JSplit it opens its own window and loads
required external files.
If an error occures it is catched and a error requester pops up.
The error messages are self-explaining so here isn't written any more
about it.
Should the computer crash... Well this should not happen... In this
case please send a @{"Bugreport" link "Adresse des Autors" 0} to me...

With the 4 buttons at the bottom of the window the program is
mainly controlled.
-@{b}Split@{ub}: Split a file. A filerequester (=FR) pops up
where you can select the file to be splitted.
After you did this you hav to select a destination directory
(or a destination device if you've switched on @{"Multi-volume
Split" link "Benutzung, Mehrdisketten" 0})
Now the file is splitted into pieces with the selected @{"size" link "Benutzung, Splitgr
e" 0}
which are named like the selected @{"name-pattern" link "Benutzung, Namensmuster" 0} shows.
-@{b}Join@{ub}: Join some smaller file into a common one. In the first
FR you have to select the destination path and file. In the second one
you can select the files that shall be joined. (Press <SHIFT> for
multi-select)
The selected files are joined afterwards.
If @{"Multi-volume
Join" link "Benutzung, Mehrdisketten" 0} is activated there'll
appear FRs where you can select files to append as long as you press
Cancel in a FR.
-@{b}About@{ub}: Shows some inforation about the Program.

At the top left there you can alter the splitsize
In the number gadget the actual splitsize is shown and you can enter
a new one directly.
With the cycle gadget below you can select one of the predefined
splitsizes.
With the button "Get from device" it's possible to get a splitsize
directly from a device (in this case this should be a drive with a
disk in it). This is pretty useful if you use a non-standart file
system.

Multi-volume handling.
This can be switched using the checkboxes on the top right side of
the window. If they're checked (a checkmark appears...) the program can
split/join onto/from several volumes.

@{u}@{fg shine}Defining the name-pattern@{uu}@{fg text}
This can be done using the cycle gadget at the right side.
At the moment there are 4 pattern defined. If your file is
"test.lha" they name the splitted files like this:
1) @{b}Name.???.J??@{ub}
test.lha.jaa
test.lha.jab
.
.
.
test.lha.jaz
test.lha.jba
.
.
.
test.lha.jzz
2) @{b}Name.j??@{ub}
Like 1) but file suffix is skipped.
test.jaa .... test.jzz
3) @{b}Name_??@{ub}
test_aa
test_ab
.
.
.
test_zz
4) @{b}Name??@{ub}
testaa
testab
.
.
.
testzz
If you don't like this pattern or if you want more, just mail
a message to me. @{"My

@{u}@{fg shine}History@{uu}@{fg text}
V1.00 - Initial release.
(14.12.1994)
V1.01 - Predifined splitsize was decreased because a file of
(15.12.1994) 720000 Bytes doesn't fit on a normal MS-DOS-DD-Disk.
V1.02 - The prog couldn't be quitted by pressing <Q> (only by
(19.02.1995) pressing <q> ) ---> changed
V1.03 - The JSplit window looked a bit strange if the screenfont
(20.02.1995) was higher than 8 Pix because the prog didn't pay attention
to this. ---> changed.
- Added sum more messages, comment etc. for status-line.
V2.00 - Completely recoded
(18.08.1995) - fontsensitive GUI
- Predefined splitsizes, splitsize can be taken directly
from a device
- Online-Help
- Multi-volume splitting and joining
- predefined namepattern
- The change from V1.00 to V1.01 was crap so it was removed.
V2.01 - Smaller optimisation
(25.08.1995) - Doc changed (a little bit)
- Error in the German language catalog fixed. Thanx go
to PackMAN 4 reporting thiz!
