Folks,
my question is completely off-topic; please reply privately to not
pollute this list. Reason for asking here is that I have absolutely
no idea where I shall ask, and searching in the internet didn't yield
anything of relevance.
Sometimes I'm downloading big files which have been split into chunks,
say, a 1GByte file into ten chunks with 100MByte each. Currently, I
have to concatenate all files into a new file to be able to access it
as a whole. I now wonder whether it is possible to group these chunks
into a virtual file (similar to virtual file systems), avoiding this
copying. BTW, I'm using a GNU/Linux box.
Werner
