NAME

       stag-splitter - splits a stag file into multiple files

SYNOPSIS

	 stag-splitter -split person -name social_security_no file.xml

DESCRIPTION

       Splits a file using a user specified parser (default xml) around a specified split node, naming each file according to the name argument

       the files will be named anonymously, unless the '-name' switch is specified; this will use the value of the specified element as the
       filename

       eg; if we have

	 <top>
	   <a>
	     <b>foo</b>
	     <c>yah</c>
	     <d>
	       <e>xxx</e>
	     </d>
	   </a>
	   <a>
	     <b>bar</b>
	     <d>
	       <e>wibble</e>
	     </d>
	   </a>
	 </top>

       if we run

	 stag-splitter -split a -name b

       it will generate two files, "foo.xml" and "bar.xml"

       input format can be 'xml', 'sxpr' or 'itext' - if this is left blank the format will be guessed from the file suffix

       the output format defaults to the same as the input format, but another can be chosen.

       files go in the current directory, but this can be overridden with the '-dir' switch

USAGE

	  stag-splitter [-split <ELEMENT-NAME>] [-name <ELEMENT-NAME>] [-dir <DIR>] [-format <INPUT-FORMAT>] [-outformat <OUTPUT-FORMAT>] <FILENAMES>

       -p|parser FORMAT
	   FORMAT is one of xml, sxpr or itext, or the name of a perl module

	   xml assumed as default

       -w|writer FORMAT
	   FORMAT is one of xml, sxpr or itext, or the name of a perl module

       -split|s NODE
	   node to split on

       -name|n NODE
	   field/element to use when naming files
