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.
