Cleave v4.5

Cleave can create segmented DMG files and segmented ZIP files. It does this by using built in commands in Mac OS. This means that the archives you create will be readable on other versions of OSX and other operating systems, without using any extra software. Read on for more information.

About - Short version

Cleave segments dmg files or segments zip files. It can split DMG files into multiple parts. This is useful if you have a huge file / folder that is too big to backup. You can split these files over several disks. If you segment a zip file, this file can also be re-combined and uncompressed as long as all of the split zip files are in the same folder. Also, if you split a zip file this is also readable on Windows 7 and 10 with no extra software.
