compressing into segments

How can i compress one large file by segmenting it to many smaller ones that can be uncompressed in windows, with the help of winrar? Example, i have a 4GB file and i want to make 4 segments of 1gb, is there such an app that can do this? In windows i can use winrar for this, but for the mac?

MisterMe will become famous soon enough
Segmented archives have been available on the Mac for decades. The easiest segmentation utility is MagicMenu which is part of the Stuffit Deluxe suite. It handles most archive formats that a computer user is likely to encounter. You may find Stuffit Deluxe 2010 and other archive utilities including many dedicated to the RAR format at this link.
