Backup files with discspan

[TheBigAmbulance]

It looks like discspan is the best way to split up a large directory and store the files on a set of discs (CD,DVD).

Are the files kept whole? I'm wondering if it reaches the absolute limit of the disc, splits a file, and burns the remainder on the next disc. I want to use this for a directory full of jpegs (pictures). i don't want it to split files.

When the files are placed on a disc, it's just making a copy, is it not?
