All too often, when you need to download a big file that somebody shared with you over a free file host like rapidshare, you find that they used HJSplit (Windows / Linux) or Split&Concat (Mac Equivalent) to split the big file in smaller parts so they can bypass the file size limit on those free hosts.
It was a pain for me to deal with them, because i refused to install one of mentionned and not-so-professional-looking, closed source programs to ‘concat’ the files again.
Now i found out that if you’re using GNU/Linux or Mac OSX you already have the tools to split and concat right under the hood of your operating system!
to split a large file called ‘bigfile.mkv’ into 100MB parts, type this in the terminal:split -b 100m -d -a 3 bigfile.mkv output.mkv.
* -b 100m: 100MB parts
* -d: use numeric suffixes (doesn’t work on Mac OSX)
* -a 3: use 3 suffix characters
* output.mkv. : output filename. don’t forget the trailing dot (.)
-> in Mac OSX, the -d option doesn’t work, so the split command only provides .aaa, .aab, etc. names.
-> you’ll need to rename all files to use .001 instead of .000 or .aaa extensions as the first archive file (and increasing names for the other files) to be compatible with HJSplit.
to concat bigfile.mkv.001, bigfile.mkv.002, and bigfile.mkv.003 to the original file, type this in the terminal:cat bigfile.mkv.001 bigfile.mkv.002 bigfile.mkv.003 > bigfile.mkv
– make sure you respect the order of files! (first 001, then 002, etc…)
that’s it!

HJSplit is a superb freeware file splitting program which aides users wishing to share large files over the web, whether it be via email or posting something on a newsgroup or forum. The first function of the program is to split one file into multiple files, the second part recombines the multiple parts into one large, original and usable file.
The application overall has a very simple and straight-forward interface making getting around quite easy and quick. Without including the bulk which most programs in the category seem to do, HJSplit gets right down to it and enables you to get your task done without messing around.
The application does not necessarily install on your system, instead opting for a path which firmly categorizes HJSplit as completely portable freeware. This means you can easily place the executable on your desktop without having to install it to your Windows PC.
This application is perfect for creating multiple files from large movies and other media types. Other uses aren't that standard, but it will also quickly recombine parts of ZIP or RAR files you're likely to find on usenet newsgroups.
HJSplit is software which can cut video files.
