Split file into multiple files based on number of records (or size)

[Íñigo Redín]

Hi all!

I'm new here.

Do you know if there is a way to split a file, but based on number of records?

I see there is a split_file command, but it is based on the content of some columns.

Thanks!

You can add the number of  fields to each CSV record using:

        csvfix eval -e '$fields' yourfile.csv > counted.csv

and then use split_file on the resulting counted.csv output file.
