I"ve taken a script on the puppy forum rightclick_split_file and converted it
so it can be used on porteus ---> the XFCE edition only. It requires Thunar file manager
Both root and guest can use the script to split up a large file.
It can be useful to store an ISO in a free data hosting service that puts limits
on file size.
It allows a large file such as an ISO to be split up
to avoid size limits that file hosting services impose on users.
I've also posted it on puppy linux forum
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=80872
Instructions: Right click on file. Follow the menu to split file.
A folder is created automatically. Inside is a script that will
reassemble the chunks back to the original file.
You should test it so that you are comfortable that it works.
User must go through a new log in to see the new right click menu
(see picture)
Here's an example where I used it to split up an Apple OS8.img file into several chunks. Then I
recombined the chunks with the aid of the script that is created automatically.

Re: Split_file in XFCE version
Hey this looks really useful! What's the file size of the script?
How do i become super user?

Re: Split_file in XFCE version
I didn't write the basic script... a German programmer/musician did that
It uses the basic 'split' command. Very simple.
There are several files because it is localized and it uses
Thunar to show a menu after a right click on a file icon.
So it's only about 200 lines of code.
