The example shown will not intentionally split at a line. Then again if you are editing the split files you can put that broken line back together manually. Or as Patrick suggested use the line count mode rather than the byte count mode of split. When one has finished in bbedit then "cat filename.sql.* > filename.sql" in Terminal.app should put the parts back together. In Unix shells results from filename expansion as shown return in sorted alphabetic order. -- David Kelly N4HHE, [email protected] ======================================================================== Whom computers would destroy, they must first drive mad. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the "BBEdit Talk" discussion group on Google Groups.
