Damien, there's many ways of doing this.
TPSUtil has options for subdividing files (if I
remember well) and selecting specimens.
Sometimes I use textwedge (free software) to
split files (any type of ascii file). You'll
need, probably, a bit of work to make it the way you want.
Certainly you can import TPS in MorphoJ, split it
according to classifiers and then import the
output in R (maybe, again, with a few manual before doing it).
In R there are various ways of subsetting data,
but this is something you'll get a better advice
from the 'R people' in the list. This last
option, I have little doubt, is the most efficient, if you know how to do it.
Good luck
Andrea
