Read Me file for MG-Split 1.2


MG-Split is a file-split utility that can be used to split
large files into smaller chunks, so they can be easily
copied to floppy disks or sent by e-mail. What distinguishes
MG-Split from other file-split utilities is the built-in
ability to handle e-mail messages. You can execute a split
session that automatically sends an e-mail for each
generated chunk, or you can execute a merge session that
automatically retrieves the e-mail messages containing the
chunks that must be merged. Another important feature is the
ability to run in batch mode; you can easily set up a system
that automatically executes a split session or a merge
session without any user interaction.
