FileSplit

Have you ever had a large file that you needed to transfer from one computer to another by disk or email? Chances are that your file was too big to fit on a single disk. And who wants to wait for a large (5+ MB) file to transfer over email? FileSplit assists in the transfer process by slicing up files into manageable chunks (i.e. 1.4 MB for floppy disks). These chunks can be sent separately and then merged together at the other end.

FileSplit is released with the understanding that I am not responsible for any damage to your system caused by its use or misuse. If you accidentally split your win.ini file and can't get it back together, that is not my problem. If you decide to use my program, you also accept the responsibility of using it properly. In addition, note that FileSplit has NOT been through any rigorous or extensive testing. I created it as an experiment and am releasing it in the hope that it proves useful to someone. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!! If you don't want to risk using it, I recommend the freeware version of another file splitting program called MaxSplitter, located at: http://www.acc.umu.se/~max/maxsplitter/index.html

Current EXE Version #: 1.0.0

Target Platforms: Win95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP (has been tested only under Win95)

If you don't know how to unzip and move files, just download the EXE (the first link) to your computer and double-click on it.
