Hi Aug...

 A> anyone here familiar with the 7z CLI?  
 A> i am trying to use it to split a file into smaller chunks (volumes) WITHOUT producing any specific archive format.  i just want to split a file.
 A> eg.  file.gpg, is 1500MB, and i want to produce three 500MB volumes named file.gpg.001, file.gpg.002 ... file.gpg.005
 A> I've tried:
 A> 7z a -m0=copy -v500m file.gpg file.gpg 
 A> ..but it complains.
 A> If I do this:
 A> 7z a -m0=copy -v500 file file.gpg
 A> ..it produces, file.7z.001, file.7z.002 ... file.7z.005

dunno why i typed "005" in my example.   it's late.    

correction:  i want three output files: file.gpg.001, file.gpg.002, and  file.gpg.003.
