[The character '=DF' is the Greek "beta" (or the German "ss" :) ).]
Yes folks, I've been at the file splitter again. :)
This new release does Long Filenames and floppy disks, and speaks in
near-English. (I can see multinational ports stemming from this :) )
Here's the usage:
SPLIT V0.99=DF - File Splitter - (c) 1998 Cyreksoft
Usages:
split help
split remake FileName [from floppy [Drive]]
split Filename into Number pieces [onto floppy [Drive]]
split Filename into Number chunks [onto floppy [Drive]]
split Filename with ratio Number:Number[:Number...] [onto floppy [Dri=
ve]]
split Filename with sizes Number [Number...] [rest] [onto floppy [Dri=
ve]]
split Filename onto floppy [Drive]
"Drive"s are of form a|b[:]
"FileName"s are either standard 8.3 filenames or Long Filenames
"Number"s are either in hexadecimal or decimal:
Hex: [$|#|H]{0-9 A-F...}[H]
Dec: {0-9...}[B|K|M]

Hmm, a few web hits, but no-one seems to have spotted the bug I found
myself. I always seem to do this. Release, then find a bug that wasn't
there before. This all happened 5 minutes before my monitor died, so my
home computer is temporarily unusable. (Just when I've got coursework to
do too...)
Since I've distributed the source, the bugfix is fairly simple. Here's the
note I've just put up on my webpage:
There's a bug in SPLIT 0.99ß that I haven't had chance to fix yet, and it
stops the program from working quite severely at times.
If you're a Euphoria coder, you can change the following line in SPLIT.E
from:
function is_long_filename(integer filename)
to:
function is_long_filename(sequence filename)
And then recompile. A very silly mistake.
Sorry :(,
Carl
