Easily view very large files, one chunk at a time.

You can choose the size of chunks to view.

Any issues, feel free to email me at mjolsonsfca@gmail.com.

## Features ##
1. You can choose to break the chunk up by delimiters ("\r\n" by default, but you can choose any delimiter)
  or just have every chunk be the same size.
    - By default, the plugin will infer the line terminator of a file, so you don't need to do anything.
2. A nice form for moving between chunks.
3. A [form for finding and replacing text](/docs/README.md#findreplace-form) in the file.
4. [JSON files](/docs/README.md#chunking-json-files) can be broken into chunks that are all syntactically valid JSON.
5. Each chunk of the file can be [written to a separate file](/docs/README.md#write-chunks-to-folder), optionally in a new folder.
