NAME

       rlesplit - split a file of concatenated RLE images into separate image
       files


SYNOPSIS

       rlesplit [ -n number [ digits ] ] [ -o prefix ] [ infile ]


DESCRIPTION

       This program will split a file containing a concatenated sequence of
       RLE(5) images into separate files, each containing a single image.  The
       output file names will be constructed from the input file name or a
       specified prefix, and a sequence number.  If an input infile is
       specified, then the output file names will be in the form
       "rlefileroot.#.rle", where rlefileroot is infile with any ".rle" suffix
       stripped off.  If the option -o prefix is specified, then the output
       file names will be of the form "prefix.#.rle".  If neither option is
       given, then the output file names will be in the form "#.rle".  Input
       will be read from infile if specified, from standard input, otherwise.
       File names will be printed on the standard error output as they are
       generated.

       The option -n allows specification of an initial sequence number, and
       optionally the number of digits used for the sequence number.  By
       default, numbering starts at 1, and numbers are printed with 3 digits
       (and leading zeros).
