Split Text Files Based On A Custom Delimiter With Chopping List

It can often be difficult to send very large files over the internet or copy them to a slow USB 2.0 flash drive. Almost all email, file sharing and cloud storage services have a maximum file size limit for their free accounts, which is usually in MBs rather than GBs. Another scenario is where you want to transfer a huge file using a couple of low capacity flash drives that you have handy, with none of them having enough free space for the complete file, but the total free space on all of them is adequate enough for the purpose. In such scenarios, splitting large files into smaller chunks can be a great option. The receiver can then merge the pieces together to get the complete file. That's where tools like Chopping List come handy. This free utility has been specially designed to split text files into smaller parts. Rather than using the normal file size method, it allows you to split text files based on custom delimiters. When you specify a delimiter, the file will be split at every instance of that delimiter in the text. Read More

Convert Media Between 700+ Formats, Split, Join & Watermark Videos

A lot of people waste time looking for media converters that are free, and support an umpteen number of file formats, but still remain uncertain as to which one they should choose. Although we have covered a number of media converters including  OxelonConvertidor De Videos and HandBrake-based HB Batch Encoder Mk2 and HandBrake Batch Encoder, we always try to find more media converters that can perform quick audio and video conversions. Video To Video Converter is one such tool that crossed my way and seemed absolutely worth using. What makes it stand out is the large number of output formats it supports; over 700 according to the developer. It can convert both audio and video files, including AVI, MPEG4, XVID, MPEG2, MOV, MKV, FLV, SWF, 3GP, GIFF, DIV, MP3, AAC, AC3, WAV, M4A, FLAC, 3GPP and more. Along with a media conversion, the software can perform video split and join operations as well as burn videos to optical discs. Read More

Pack Large Files With Blazing Fast Speed With Unimodz File Packer

Many files that are capable of changing Windows registry or other sensitive sections of Windows can be labeled as virus or malware by antivirus programs, and will instantly get deleted (without asking for permission). While this does offer protection on one side, it can end up removing some important files that have been mistaken as malware. Many a times adding a folder or file to exception in an antivirus program does not ensure that it will not be removed (e.g. when you shift a file from one folder to another). The best way to protect these files and to retain them is to pack them. But packing a large file can be quite time consuming and laborious. Very large files take an awful amount of time to get zipped. In such a case it is better to pack a file instead of compressing it, but this option is often not available in common compression software. Read More
