    The option to split zip archives at a fixed exact point is missing in
    info-zip (which is the version of zip included in Linux). It is possible,
    though, to break them at file boundaries: meaning, of course, it can not
    split a single file larger than the requested size.

    Very unfortunate :-(

    On another note... I'm nicely surprised as to the number of people knowing
    how to concatenate files in dos (I had to use the trick last month). I
    wonder how many "windows" people know it :-p

    (I became to love linux at first because its console had what I had always
    wanted in ms-dos, and knew I would never have. I guess I'm not the only
    one)
