      NAME
           split - split a file into pieces

      SYNOPSIS
           split [ -n ] [ file [ name ] ]

      DESCRIPTION
           Split reads file and writes it in n-line pieces (default  1000),  as
           many  as  necessary,  onto  a  set of output files.  The name of the
           first output file is name with aa appended, and so on  lexicographi-
           cally.  If no output name is given, x is default.

           If no input file is given, or if - is given in its stead,  then  the
           standard input file is used.
