Splitting big files into small ones

example: 

$ tar cfp - $SPEC | split -b 100m - split.tar

This would create files as split.taraa, split.tarab, etc

To extract from such a set: 

$ cat split.tar?? | tar xvfp -

This is a collection of techical information, much of it learned the hard way. Consider it a lab book or a /info directory. I doubt much of it will be of use to anyone else.
