Useful commands for work with splitted archives

September 19th, 2010 No comments

I have found some of the following command very handy when worked with splitted archives:

  • lxsplit – command-line file splitter/joiner. Good for splitted files with 000, 001, … suffixes.
  • cksfv - command-line SFV checksum utility (aka. Simple File Verification).  Lot of archives from the Windows world has this type of the checksum included.
  • udpcast – tool for multi-casting files over the network.

The way to mark more items, for example sms messages or emails which I want delete at once, is painful if you have to go to menu for each single item and choose Mark. You can do this quickly by holding # and pressing down/up cursor key.
