effects on regular expressions. The libc regex code does not handle equivalence classes well (for example), but we do our best.

|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Nm
|
|
.Op Fl ks
|
|
.Op Fl f Ar prefix
|
|
.Op Fl n Ar number
|
|
.Ar file args ...
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility splits
|
|
.Ar file
|
|
into pieces using the patterns
|
|
.Ar args .
|
|
If
|
|
.Ar file
|
|
is
|
|
a dash
|
|
.Pq Sq Fl ,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
reads from standard input.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The options are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width indent
|
|
.It Fl f Ar prefix
|
|
Give created files names beginning with
|
|
.Ar prefix .
|
|
The default is
|
|
.Dq Pa xx .
|
|
.It Fl k
|
|
Do not remove output files if an error occurs or a
|
|
.Dv HUP ,
|
|
.Dv INT
|
|
or
|
|
.Dv TERM
|
|
signal is received.
|
|
.It Fl n Ar number
|
|
Use
|
|
.Ar number
|
|
of decimal digits after the
|
|
.Ar prefix
|
|
to form the file name.
|
|
The default is 2.
|
|
.It Fl s
|
|
Do not write the size of each output file to standard output as it is
|
|
created.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar args
|
|
operands may be a combination of the following patterns:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width indent
|
|
.It Xo
|
|
.Sm off
|
|
.Cm / Ar regexp Cm / Op Oo Cm + | - Oc Ar offset
|
|
.Sm on
|
|
.Xc
|
|
Create a file containing the input from the current line to (but not including)
|
|
the next line matching the given basic regular expression.
|
|
An optional
|
|
.Ar offset
|
|
from the line that matched may be specified.
|
|
.It Xo
|
|
.Sm off
|
|
.Cm % Ar regexp Cm % Op Oo Cm + | - Oc Ar offset
|
|
.Sm on
|
|
.Xc
|
|
Same as above but a file is not created for the output.
|
|
.It Ar line_no
|
|
Create containing the input from the current line to (but not including)
|
|
the specified line number.
|
|
.It Cm { Ns Ar num Ns Cm }
|
|
Repeat the previous pattern the specified number of times.
|
|
If it follows a line number pattern, a new file will be created for each
|
|
.Ar line_no
|
|
lines,
|
|
.Ar num
|
|
times.
|
|
The first line of the file is line number 1 for historic reasons.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
After all the patterns have been processed, the remaining input data
|
|
(if there is any) will be written to a new file.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Requesting to split at a line before the current line number or past the
|
|
end of the file will result in an error.
