Except that that will split your file into files with 300 lines each. If you want one line each, you'll need to use `split -l 1 file.orig new.`. Also, by default, split will use two-character lowercase alpha suffixes (aa .. zz) to name the new files, so it'll run out if you split into more than 676 chunks. Check the split man page for how to increase that. Aaron B. My Woefully Neglected Blog, where I occasionally mention Perl.	[reply] [d/l]
