File Splitter 1.3 (Downloads: 333)
Split large text/html files into smaller files using embedded split commands. Split large text/html files into smaller files. I find it
much faster and more accurate than cut and paste.
You embed commands in the big file telling it which pieces
of it are to go where, then let Splitter do the work. It is
much faster and more accurate than trying to select huge
blocks of text in an editor. You don't accidentally lose or
duplicate text. Keeping files small makes the site more
responsive.

RadixSort is a fast internal sort written in Java that mimics a card sorter. RadixSort is a fast internal sort written in Java that
mimics a card sorter. Source provided. It is faster than
both HeapSort and QuickSort. It sorts using a comparision
routine you provide to compare two elements to be sorted
plus a method to extract individual bytes from the keys to
be sorted. The time to sort each item unlike most sorts,
does not increase with larger sorts. It depends rather on
the key length.
