Frism (File Prism)
Does what it says on the tin. No dependencies either.
Another CLI utility to split files into arbitrary size chunks, and join them back together again (yes I know a million different archival tools can do this, e.g. 7z but, one tool to do a specific thing and avoid ffmpeg philosophy kicking in here)
Usage: frism <split|join> filename.ext <N[k|m|g]> [outfile.ext]
---------- ------------
(split) (join)
Splitting
$ frism split filename.ext 50m | All whitespace is eliminated after the
$ frism split - filename.ext 50m | filename, and treated as one argument,
.................................... | This would still be valid: 1 00 0 000 k
>> filename.ext.0, filename.ext.1, etc | If - is provided as the filename, then
| bytes are read from stdin, and the third
| argument becomes the filename template.
Joining
$ frism join filename.ext | Notice the lack of '.0' at the end; it's no mistake.
....................... | When joining parts, the parts are found automatically
>> filename.ext | by adding 0..inf to the basename until file not found.
|
| The output is then written as the basename. Adding a
| a second filename after the basename will make that
| the output file, rather than the basename itself.
