A simple bash shell script should work fairly well.

File Splitter

What is The File Splitter?
The File Splitter is a free Windows program that will split any file into pieces of any size and later combine the pieces to form the original file. This could prove useful in a number of situations:
  • Suppose you need to transfer a file from one stand-alone computer to another. A floppy disk is often the only possible means for transferring the file, but if the file is larger than 1.44 megabytes, it won't fit on a single floppy. Simply split the file onto floppy disks, and then copy the pieces from the floppy disks to the other computer and easily reconstruct the original file.

  • Many email systems place a limit on the size of an email message. What if you want to email someone a file that is larger than the maximum size? Split the file into pieces smaller than the limit and email the individual pieces.

  • There are many other possibilities for using The File Splitter. I'm sure you can think of a situation where The File Splitter would be helpful.

Download a freeware file splitter/joiner program and split it into smaller chunks at the file level. Open each one separately and edit it then save it. Then use the file splitter/joiner to join them back up.
