Split&Concat 1.0b5 Released

Freeware utility to split or recombine large files (for use with internet newsgroups or if your file is too large to put on one CD). In Internet newsgroups large files often are split into smaller parts since messages can not be of more than a certain size to be able to post them in newsgroups. For that reason you can find often binary files that are split in parts like filename.mp3.001, filename.mp3.002, filename.mp3.003 etcetera. It is possible to put these parts together using commands in the Terminal yet not everybody is handy with that. That is why I decided to create a small utility with the OS X interface that makes it easy for people to split large files to be uploaded, or to put together split files downloaded from the Internet. You can also use it to divide very large files over several CD's. For further information visit Split&Concat's homepage at http://www.xs4all.nl/~loekjehe/Split&Concat/.
Changes in beta 1.0b5:
Drag and drop (to the program icon in the Finder or in the Dock) has been enabled with "smart detection" if you want to split or concat;
Added the option to choose an Output Folder for the resulting files;
Progress indicator now functions to show the state of the process;
Added a "Forced Quit" button to interrupt the process at any time. Split&Concat is licensed under the general Open Source BSD license conditions. This program is in beta version. Use it entirely at your own risk! It can still contain bugs! I don't accept any reliability for any damage that might have been caused to your software, files or hardware or other properties by using this program. If you don't agree to this: don't use this program. Split&Concat is part of the Mutsu project on Sourceforge.net.
Made forward compatible with the new AppleScript 1.8.2 version (to arrive in March 2002).
