title: How to split a large file into small ones by line number
body: <p>I am trying to split my large big file into small bits using the line numbers. For example my file has 30,000,000 lines and i would like to divide this into small files wach of which has 10,000 lines(equivalent to 3000 small files).</p>
  
  <p>I used the 'split' in unix but it seems that it is limited to only 100 files. </p>
  
  <p>Is there a way of overcoming this limitation of 100 files?</p>
  
  <p>If there is another way of doing this, please advise as well.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
