I know about all the file splitting programs which split the files into equal parts.
But i need to split a file say 783kb into 2 parts
Part1 : 105kb Part2 : 680kb
is there a program to do this ? in Windows XP
Thanks

You could split the file into parts of 105kB, for example using split
from GNU CoreUtils for Windows, and then assemble all but the first part.
Or you could, from the same package, use head
to output only the first xxx Bytes from a file to another file called myFileHead
:
head -c xxx myFile > myFileHead
The same applies to tail
, only writing the last xxx Bytes to a file called myFileTail
:
tail -c xxx myFile > myFileTail
Actually, I need to split a 1400mb file into Part1:115kb Part2:theremainingfile.. so this method will be consuming huge time if used.. – Siva – 2011-04-27T10:16:30.927
I doubt it, that's merely a one-liner in Bash. – slhck – 2011-04-27T10:17:29.367

@Siva I edited my answer, maybe that helps. – slhck – 2011-04-27T11:40:48.800
where can i get this head and tail programs ? – Siva – 2011-04-27T12:02:59.127
From GNU core utils – slhck – 2011-04-27T12:48:42.333
@slhck: can you provide more info i couldnt make it – Siva – 2011-04-28T14:21:33.150
seems the tail syntax is wrong ? – Siva – 2011-04-28T14:51:11.273
Works for me, but maybe there's something Windows specific which I couldn't test? And head
works? – slhck – 2011-04-28T15:15:23.447
head command works – Siva – 2011-04-28T17:13:03.037
I can't really help you without any further information. head
and tail
use exactly the same syntax. – slhck – 2011-04-28T20:26:23.203
tail doesnt work i am not sure why... can you think anyother software which can help me do this ? – Siva – 2011-04-29T13:00:13.557
Not at the moment, no, I'm sorry! – slhck – 2011-04-29T15:01:32.270
