# `splitfiles`

```

usage: splitfiles []  

Splits STDIN into files when encountering a pattern.

The generated filenames will be printed to STDOUT. With the verbose flag, the number of

lines in each file will also be printed.

The pattern can be either a list of literal characters, or a regular expression that work

line by line. The line break character is part of the line you are matching by.

The output will not contain the split characters.

Flags:

      --help     Show context-sensitive help (also try --help-long and --help-man).

  -f, --force    Overwrite files instead of skipping them.

  -E, --regexp   Parse PATTERN as a regular expression instead of a raw string.

  -v, --verbose  Print number of lines in each file.

Args:

     Pattern to split on.

    File template to generate from. You can control where in the filenames the

              sequential number will appear by inserting a series of "?" in it.

```
