有一个实用程序将行号作为参数,这些行号应成为每个相应新文件的第一个：csplit.这是它的 POSIX version的包装：

#!/bin/bash

usage () {
    printf '%s\n' "${0##*/} [-ks] [-f prefix] [-n number] file arg1..." >&2
}

# Collect csplit options
while getopts "ksf:n:" opt; do
    case "$opt" in
        k|s) args+=(-"$opt") ;;           # k: no remove on error,s: silent
        f|n) args+=(-"$opt" "$OPTARG") ;; # f: filename prefix,n: digits in number
        *) usage; exit 1 ;;
    esac
done
shift $(( OPTIND - 1 ))

fname=$1
shift
ratios=("$@")

len=$(wc -l < "$fname")

# Sum of ratios and array of cumulative ratios
for ratio in "${ratios[@]}"; do
    (( total += ratio ))
    cumsums+=("$total")
done

# Don't need the last element
unset cumsums[-1]

# Array of numbers of first line in each split file
for sum in "${cumsums[@]}"; do
    linenums+=( $(( sum * len / total + 1 )) )
done

csplit "${args[@]}" "$fname" "${linenums[@]}"

在要拆分的文件的名称之后,它采用拆分文件的大小相对于它们的总和的比率,即,

percsplit brown.txt 60 20 20
percsplit brown.txt 6 2 2
percsplit brown.txt 3 1 1

都是等价的.

与问题案例类似的用法如下：

$percsplit -s -f part -n 1 brown.txt 60 20 20
$wc -l part*
 34403 part0
 11468 part1
 11468 part2
 57339 total

但编号从零开始,并且没有txt扩展名. GNU version支持–suffix格式选项,该选项允许.txt扩展,并且可以添加到接受的参数中,但这需要比getopts更精细的解析它们.

这个解决方案适用于非常短的文件(将两行分成两行),繁重的工作由csplit本身完成.
