Before: If you entered a value other than 0 in the Where to split box, select this
option if you want to split the file a given number of lines before the line on
which the condition is met.

is met (the default value is 1). If you want the task to split the file only when the
condition has been met twice, for example, enter the number 2 in this box.

CSV Emulation Group
l
Add header to each output file: This option should only be checked if you are
using CSV emulation, and will copy the first line of your data file as the first line of
each split file afterward. This is useful only if your first line is a Header line that
contains your field names.
Miscellaneous Tab
The Miscellaneous tab is common to all tasks.
Check the option Use as step description to display the text next to the icon of the plugin in
the Process area.
Generic Splitter
The Generic Splitter is a legacy task which is kept for backwards compatibility. In previous
versions of PReS Workflow, it was the only splitter available. While this splitter seems to have
more options than the other ones, this is only because it contains combined features from these
other splitters.
Warning
The Generic Splitter, while seemingly more feature-rich, is slower than the other splitters
by an order of magnitude. Whenever encountering the Generic Splitter, it is always
recommended to replace it with a more appropriate splitter instead.
Input
Any data file.
