Description:
Have you ever had a large file that you have wanted to back up onto floppy disks, CDs or Zip disks, copy to another computer, email to someone who's email box is not large enough to hold the file or distribute reliably over the Internet? PhileSplitter allows you to split a file into a number of smaller, more manageable pieces which can later be re-assembled to make the original file.
Suppose you wanted to distribute a large file over the Internet. If something goes wrong, the user loses everything they've downloaded so far. Most people do not have file resumers, plus these are incompatible with many servers. Using PhileSplitter you can split the file into small pieces and generate a script that will re-assemble the file once the user has downloaded all the pieces. PhileSplitter will even generate a web page for people to download these pieces if you want it to!
Using PhileSplitter you can split to a folder on your hard disk or span across floppies, CDs or Zip disks. You can split just a single file (very large file sizes are supported, we estimate over 800 terabytes!) or split groups of files and folders. PhileSplitter has it's own built in compression and encryption if you wish to use them to save time switching between programs. In fact, you can even compress your files, generate a web page and script, and when a user downloads the files, the script will even decompress them using the decompression support built into the Windows operating system!
If you get bored waiting for a very large split or assemble operation, you can now cancel it part way, save your progress and exit the program. You can then reload the program at a later date and carry on from where you left off! Improved progress bars now give you an idea of how long an operation will take and an estimated remaining time.
You can use any size pieces you want, including using a different size for the first piece if you wish. Individual piece sizes from 10 KB to 4 GB are supported and you can also select to integrate the program into Explorer during the installation, allowing groups of files to be selected and you can simply right-click on them and choose "Split".
PhileSplitter now comes with plug-in support, and a variety of expansions will be available in the future to enhance the software. This will include new script generators to support assembly under a variety of different operating systems (MS-DOS and Windows script generation is included as standard). It has a very easy to use wizard-based interface, complete with online help.
