NAME

       LAsplit - divide an .las alignment file

SYNOPSIS

       LAsplit target:las {parts:int | path:db|dam} < source.las

DESCRIPTION

       If  the  second  argument is an integer n, then divide the alignment file source, piped in
       through the standard input, as evenly as possible into n alignment  files  with  the  name
       target.i.las  for  i in [1,n], subject to the restriction that all alignment records for a
       given a-read are in the same file.

       If the second argument refers to a database path.db that has been partitioned, then divide
       the  input  alignment  file  into  block  .las  files where all records whose a-read is in
       path.i.db are in align.i.las.
