Splitting by file size cuts lines #8

Open fabiankessler opened 7 years ago

fabiankessler commented 7 years ago

One file ends with a started line but unfinished and the next one continues with the rest of that line. If this is intended then it should be documented in the README.

The README has this example:

fSplit -split 10230 kb c:\console\console.log

The lines of log files should never be cut into 2. So I consider this a bug.

Split by size uses only file size to calculate the split point. The file could be an ANSI file like a log or a BINARY file like a long video.

To split an ANSI file by aproximated size with line detection a flag could be added to the options to preserve the entire lines.
