        !             6: split \- split a file into pieces
        !             7: .SH SYNOPSIS
        !             8: \fBsplit\fP [ -\fBn\fP ] [ -\fBb\fP byte_cnt ] [ file [ name ] ]
        !             9: .SH DESCRIPTION
        !            10: \fISplit\fP reads \fIfile\fP and writes it in
        !            11: .IR n -line
        !            12: pieces or in \fIbyte_cnt\fP byte pieces to a set of output
        !            13: files.  The default is in 1000 line pieces.  The name of the
        !            14: first output file is \fIname\fP with "aa" appended, and so
        !            15: on, lexicographically, to "zz".  If no output name is given,
        !            16: "x" is the default, in which case \fIsplit\fP will create
        !            17: files from "xaa" to "zzz".
        !            18: .PP
        !            19: If no input file is given, or if \fB-\fP is given in its stead, then
        !            20: the standard input file is used.
        !            21: .SH BUGS
        !            22: If you provide \fIname\fP, \fIsplit\fP can only create 676 separate
        !            23: files.  The default naming convention allows 2028 separate files.
