       -b, --bytes=SIZE
	      put SIZE bytes per output file

       -C, --line-bytes=SIZE
	      put at most SIZE bytes of lines per output file

       -d, --numeric-suffixes
	      use numeric suffixes instead of alphabetic

       -e, --elide-empty-files
	      do not generate empty output files with `-n'

       -u, --unbuffered

       --verbose
	      print a diagnostic just before each output file is opened

       --help display this help and exit

       --version
	      output version information and exit

       SIZE may be (or may be an integer optionally followed by) one  of  fol‐
       lowing: KB 1000, K 1024, MB 1000*1000, M 1024*1024, and so on for G, T,
       P, E, Z, Y.

       CHUNKS may be: N	      split into N files based on size	of  input  K/N
       output  Kth of N to stdout l/N	  split into N files without splitting
       lines l/K/N   output Kth of N to stdout	without	 splitting  lines  r/N
       like  `l'  but  use  round robin distribution r/K/N   likewise but only
       output Kth of N to stdout
