SplitWin is a utility for splitting big files into parts and then
merging them back in the Windows 3.1 environment.
The purpose of this program is to split big files into smaller chunks 
or merge chunks back to original file. This can be useful, when coping 
big files to floppy diskettes, or transferring files via e-mail. 
Each of the chunks has header containing information on name of the 
original file, the size, the number of parts file was cut into and which 
part it is. This eliminates errors that occur with the existing programs
that divide big files.
If the original file name is Eg  MYFILE.ABC  then the chunks will have names 
MYFILE.Z00, MYFILE.Z01,..., MYFILE.Z0n

Usage:  

Drag the file (you desire to split/merge) from the file manager window and 
drop it over the SplitWin Icon or client area, or use push buttons, or menu
commands. 
The first time activated SplitWin runs not minimised, but if you prefer 
it to run minimised you can check "run minimised" and the next time activated,
it will run minimised.

Splitwin is shareware. This copy can be used only for 30 trial days.

This program is written in C++.
