split started to be a requirement when I needed a command-line  
way to break up a 7GB media .iso file suitable to transport on  
a usb drive from my windows-based machines.

Would be nice to use a more uptodate split.exe for windows, but  
split.exe 2.0 was workable when I learned (by trial and error)  
what the limit was.

Meanwhile, I am very happy to see that Busybox split has no  
noticeable limit for the -b parameter.

That, and the ability to do piping like:

 tar | gpg | split


 ..luv it!
