csplit:tldr:617b3
The command "csplit ${filename} ${5} ${23}" is used to split a file into multiple parts based on certain criteria.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
-
"csplit" is the command itself, which stands for "context split". It is used to split files based on context-defined patterns.
-
${filename} refers to the name of the file that is being split. You would replace "${filename}" with the actual name of the file you want to split.
-
${5} and ${23} are the arguments provided to the command. In this case, they represent the line numbers where the file will be split. The parameter ${5} indicates that the file should be split at line number 5, and the parameter ${23} indicates that it should be split again at line number 23.
So, when you run this command, it will split the specified file at line 5 and create two parts: one containing lines 1-5 and another containing lines 6-23.
