Hi ! I've wrote a file splitter script ... but it gives me a strange error when I use it with files larger than 1GB , here is the error : Negative length at split.pl line 14 (#1) Here is the source code : 
use strict;
use warnings;
my $temp_data=0;
my $i=0;
my $f=shift || die "File\n";
open(F,$f) || die "OPEN : $!\n";
binmode(F);
my $size=shift || die "Size\n";
my $dir=shift || die "Dir that will hold the parts of the file?\n";
my $fsize=-s $f;
system("mkdir $dir");
chdir($dir) || die "CHDIR : $!\n";
CHUNK:while(1)
{
if(($fsize - $size) < 0)
    {
    read(F,$temp_data,$fsize);
    open(G,">$i") || die "CREATE $!\n";
    print G $temp_data;
    print "i've split chunk nr $i\n";
    close G;
    last CHUNK;
    }
else {
    $fsize-=$size;
    read(F,$temp_data,$size);
    open(G,">$i") || die "CREATE $!\n";
    print G $temp_data;
    close G;
    print "I've split chunk $i\n";
    $i++;
    last CHUNK if($fsize<0);
       }
}
close F;

Do you think the program overflows ?
