SYNOPSIS

       csplit [OPTION]... FILE PATTERN...

DESCRIPTION

       Output pieces of FILE separated by PATTERN(s) to files 'xx00', 'xx01', ..., and output byte counts of each piece to standard output.

       Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too.

       -b, --suffix-format=FORMAT
	      use sprintf FORMAT instead of %02d

       -f, --prefix=PREFIX
	      use PREFIX instead of 'xx'

       -k, --keep-files
	      do not remove output files on errors

       -m, --suppress-matched
	      suppress the lines matching PATTERN

       -n, --digits=DIGITS
	      use specified number of digits instead of 2

       -s, --quiet, --silent
	      do not print counts of output file sizes

       -z, --elide-empty-files
	      remove empty output files

       --help display this help and exit

       --version
	      output version information and exit

       Read standard input if FILE is -.  Each PATTERN may be:

       INTEGER
	      copy up to but not including specified line number

       /REGEXP/[OFFSET]
	      copy up to but not including a matching line

       %REGEXP%[OFFSET]
	      skip to, but not including a matching line

       {INTEGER}
	      repeat the previous pattern specified number of times

       {*}    repeat the previous pattern as many times as possible

       A line OFFSET is a required '+' or '-' followed by a positive integer.

       which counts are printed, always in the following order: newline, word, character, byte, maximum line length.

       -c, --bytes
	      print the byte counts

       -m, --chars
	      print the character counts

       -l, --lines
	      print the newline counts

       --files0-from=F
	      read input from the files specified by NUL-terminated names in file F; If F is - then read names from standard input

       -L, --max-line-length
	      print the length of the longest line

       -w, --words
