► NK's RATING & NOTES: Translators often have to deal with large files and for this reason we often have problems especially when we need to send those files. The problems are easily solvable when you have such a tool as Chainsaw. This tiny app (179KB) doesn't need installation, it is very easy to use and it works as a charm. You can send the splitted file and the addressee doesn't need this program to be on his computer for assembly: all he has to do is to click on the batch file. Highly recommended.
