This repository contains a Bash script designed to divide a large text file into smaller files with equal lines. It's particularly useful for processing large datasets in a more manageable form or distributing the content for parallel processing.

Example:

When you have thousands of subdomains to scan with nuclei or any other tool, sometimes, these tools do not work properly. I have created this script to overcome this issue and achieve more parallelism.

Features

• Dynamically split a file based on the number of desired output files.
• Automatically calculates the required lines per file to ensure an even distribution.
• Renames output files based on the original file name, appending a sequence number for easy identification.

Installation

1. Clone this repository to your local machine using the following command:

   git clone https://github.com/unstabl3/splitter.git

2. Navigate to the directory where the script is located:

   cd splitter

3. Make the script executable:

   chmod +x splitter.sh

Usage

To use the script, specify the input file and the number of files you wish to split it into. The syntax is as follows:

./splitter.sh -f <input_file> -d <number_of_files>

Parameters

• -f: Specifies the path to the input file you want to divide.
• -d: Specifies the number of files into which the input file should be split.

Example

Suppose you have a file named data.txt that you want to split into 5 smaller files. You can achieve this by running:

./splitter.sh -f data.txt -d 5

This will split data.txt into 5 smaller files named data_1.txt, data_2.txt, ..., data_5.txt, each containing an equal number of lines.
