CRFILE(1) CRFILE(1) NAME crfile - Create arbitrary sized files SYNOPSIS crfile -f filename -s size [-w[len] | -n] DESCRIPTION crfile is used to create a file of the specified size, filled with random ASCII characters. The -n switch allows the creation of files padded with null characters (ie. containing large 'holes') that have an apparent length of the specified size, but contain only one random character. OPTIONS -f filename specifies the file to be created. If the file exists, an error is generated. -s size size is the size of the file, in bytes -wlen wrap each line of output at len characters. If len omitted, wrap at 80 characters. -n Pad the file with null characters instead of random ASCII text. This allows for the rapid creation of large files (useful for veri- fying that programs can deal with files > 2GB in size, for example). AUTHOR Julian T. J.
