What were you trying to do?
Using split to break a 3+Mb file up into 1.44Mb chunks. But
that's not rally relevent :-)
What's wrong:
The man page for split says that a binary file should be split
into 10*n character pieces (where n is specified on the command line)
What should have happened:
It will actually be split into n*10 K chunks.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
The split manpage :-) It's a miniscule bug, but I thought that I
would let you know.
