When using `split' (textutils 2.0-12) to split a large file (4.2G) I've found an inconsistency. The original file consists of number - one per line - total 5*10^8. After `split -l 10000000 foo' I have 50 files. In some of them, however a dot has been replaced by `<'. Is this a known problem? `foo' has been created in Windows if that makes a difference. Thank you for any suggestions Jens
