Version 1.2 is a big update. NEW: MERGE FILES BACK TOGETHER Splitting now has an inverse. Open the Merge window, drop the pieces in, check the order and save them as one file. Files are ordered the way Finder orders them, so 2 comes before 10 and a document never reassembles in the wrong order. Split a CSV with repeated headers and merging takes the extra header rows back out. NEW: SPLIT BY FILE SIZE Ask for pieces of at most 64 KB or 5 MB and every file lands under the limit, without ever cutting a character in half. NEW: OVERLAP BETWEEN CHUNKS Repeat a few lines, words or characters at the start of each piece, so a sentence is not cut in half where two chunks meet. Useful when you are feeding a long document into an AI context window. NEW: CSV AND TSV HEADER ROWS Split a spreadsheet and every piece keeps its column names, so each file opens as a proper spreadsheet on its own. NEW: KEEP YOUR DELIMITER Splitting on your own marker can now keep it at the start or the end of each piece, so the files join back into the original exactly. NEW: EXPORT AS A SINGLE ZIP Plus keyboard shortcuts for opening, splitting and exporting, and a warning before anything existing is replaced. FIXED: YOUR TEXT IS NO LONGER CHANGED BY SPLITTING These were real problems and they are all gone: - Files written on Windows are no longer double spaced - Blank lines are kept instead of being dropped - Splitting by words keeps your line breaks and indentation - Large files split quickly instead of slowing down as they grow - Files that are not UTF-8 open correctly, and pieces of a UTF-16 file can be reopened ALSO IN THIS VERSION New artwork throughout, a tidier options panel with the split rules in one menu, and a warning before opening a file large enough to be slow.

NEW • Split by file size — create chunks of a set number of KB or MB. The most direct way to break up large logs and exports. • Overlapping chunks — repeat a number of lines, words or characters at the start of each chunk. Useful when preparing text for AI context windows, where a little repetition keeps ideas from being cut in half at the join. • CSV header rows — the first line can be repeated at the top of every chunk, so a split spreadsheet keeps its column names in every file. Switches on automatically for .csv and .tsv files. • Export as a .zip — save every chunk into a single archive instead of loose files. • Keyboard shortcuts — ⌘O to open, ⌘E to export, ⌘R to split, ⌘⌫ to clear. • Automatic encoding detection — files that aren't UTF-8, such as Latin-1, Windows-1252 and UTF-16, now open correctly instead of failing to load. You can also choose a different encoding if the detected one looks wrong. IMPROVED • Edits to a chunk are now saved. Previously, changes made in the expanded chunk view were discarded when you closed it. • Exporting asks before replacing files that already exist, instead of overwriting them silently. • Large files are handled more gracefully, with a heads-up before opening one and a clear notice when a file is too large to preview. Splitting and exporting still work as usual. • Chunk numbering widens automatically, so 1,200 chunks are numbered 0001–1200 and always sort correctly in Finder. • Splitting large files is dramatically faster. FIXED • Files with Windows line endings were split with a blank line added after every line. If you have results from an earlier version that came from a Windows-created file, it's worth splitting the original again. • Blank lines at the start of a chunk were dropped, and a chunk containing only blank lines could be saved as an empty file. • Splitting by words removed formatting — line breaks, blank lines and indentation were collapsed into single spaces. Chunks now match the original text exactly. • Splitting on a delimiter skipped empty sections, so some chunks were missing and the numbering didn't line up with the file.
