Help on Spliting files - urgent
Hi Script Masters I have a strange requirement. Please help.
I am using C shell.
I have a file like the below in sorted order
22
23
25
34
37
45
67
342
456
476
543
677
789
Now I have to split the file in such a way that first 5 of 2 digit number should be saved as aaa.in and the next 5 of 2 digit number should be saved as aab.in and this should continue for all remaning 2 digits (any count) and the first 5 of 3 digit number should be saved in aac.in and the next 5 in aad.in and so on...
In nut shell
file aaa.in should contain
22
23
25
34
37
and file aab.in should contain
45
67
and file aac.in
342
456
476
543
677
and file aad.in should be
789
The split up of 5 number per file is constant and other things will vary..
If you have any doubts please ask me. Any help or clue will be greatly appreciated.
I know split command can create multiple files like aaa,aab but the problem I see it that the filename is not getting carried on .If I use split 2 times it will overwrite aaa file instead of creating aac ..

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
NAME
textutil::split - Procedures to split texts
SYNOPSIS
package require Tcl 8.2
package require textutil::split ?0.7?
::textutil::split::splitn string ?len?
::textutil::split::splitx string ?regexp?
_________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
The package textutil::split provides commands that split strings by size and arbitrary regular expressions.
The complete set of procedures is described below.
::textutil::split::splitn string ?len?
This command splits the given string into chunks of len characters and returns a list containing these chunks. The argument len
defaults to 1 if none is specified. A negative length is not allowed and will cause the command to throw an error. Providing an
empty string as input is allowed, the command will then return an empty list. If the length of the string is not an entire multiple
of the chunk length, then the last chunk in the generated list will be shorter than len.
::textutil::split::splitx string ?regexp?
This command splits the string and return a list. The string is split according to the regular expression regexp instead of a simple
list of chars. Note that if you parentheses are added into the regexp, the parentheses part of separator will be added into the
result list as additional element. If the string is empty the result is the empty list, like for split. If regexp is empty the
string is split at every character, like split does. The regular expression regexp defaults to "[\t \r\n]+".
BUGS, IDEAS, FEEDBACK

either package and/or documentation.
