I have a feeling this is why I should have learned Perl.
Now now, no reason to go to extremes.
From a worksheet
split -p ':::' <filename> split_filename_
this will yield a bunch of files with names like
split_filename_aa
split_filename_ab
split_filename_ac
split_filename_ad
split_filename_ae
etc..
I'm a fan of terminal much as the next person, but I've never found
split or csplit to function as expected in Tiger. The above command
doesn't function as expected. Well, actually, I don't know what the
-p parameter does -- never heard of it before, but a quick man
indicates split only supports byte count, line count and suffix
length. Csplit should do the trick, but it doesn't work quite as
expected, either.
Say you have a text file called sapmmyIP with a dozen items delimited
by returns:
58.8.0.0-58.8.255.255 ; ADSL HuaweiBB Truehisp TH
58.18.0.0-58.18.255.255 ; CNCGROUP Neimeng Province CN
558.224.0.0-58.239.255.255 ; Hananet KR
59.0.0.0-59.31.255.255 ; kornet KR
59.144.34.0-59.144.34.255 ; Bharti infotel Ltd IN
59.188.0.0-59.188.255.255 ; New World Telecom HK
60.220.0.0-60.223.255.255 ; CNCGROUP Shanxi CN
61.0.0.0-61.1.255.255 ; BSNLNET IN
61.16.198.192-61.16.198.255 ; HOTWIRE IN
61.32.0.0-61.43.255.255 ; DACOM BORANET KR
222.32.0.0-222.63.255.255 ; CHINA RAILWAY TELECOMM CN
222.76.0.0-222.84.255.255 ; CHINANET fujian Xinjiang Guangxi province CN
one would think using csplit -k -f ickyIP_ sapmmyIP '/\r/' should
split these at the line breaks, but it only works once. I may have
parameters and arguments mucked up -- someone please point it out if so.
I do think using
split -l 1 -a 2 sapmmyIP ickyIP_
should create 12 files split at the line breaks to create
ickyIP_aa
ickyIP_ab
ickyIP_ac
...
how one would run this within BBEdit is beyond me. Terminal is your
friend?
