does anyone know of a way to split a text file into multiple
files based on the number of lines?  ie: 5000 lines split in
to five files of 1000 lines each.

i've been trying to figure out a way to do it with perl, but
no luck so far.  but any way to get it done is appreciated.

(...) If you're using a UNIX variant the split command will do this for you. i.e. split -l 1000 [filename] Chris (24 years ago, 6-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
