chopping a ZIP file into fragments

[BradKML]

Since ZIP allow data splitting, take a look at https://kb.winzip.com/help/winzip/help_splitdlg.htm
Imagine a tweet thread with split files

[DavidBuchanan314]

This project should already work with split zip files.

Clarification on https://github.com/DavidBuchanan314/tweetable-polyglot-png#embedded-file-requirements
Sinde it does not hint at the use of the split function when creating the image, maybe I read that wrong.

[DavidBuchanan314]

Are you suggesting an update to the readme? How would you phrase it differently?

[BradKML]

"If the embedded file is a .zip, then the offsets are automatically adjusted so that the overall file is still a valid zip."
This can be interpreted as a partial file, which does not quite make sense. Maybe:
"If the embedded file is a .zip, then it will be divided into partial zip files, each stored in a separate image."

[DavidBuchanan314]

Oh, that's not the current behavior. Zipping files is out-of-scope of this project, it just packs pre-zipped files. How those files are zipped is entirely up to the end-user.
