[B-Greek] Greek and Latin Psalter divisions

Hello, all
I have a question that's somewhat off-topic but hope folks here may have an
answer. I'm reading the Gallican Psalter - Jerome's translation from the
LXX. The electronic text I have is divided into individual Psalms and
verses.
Does anyone here know if the Gallican Psalter was traditionally divided in
any other way? I'm thinking of the twenty kathismata of the LXX Psalter, or
the five books of Coverdale's Psalter (did he take that division from an
earlier Latin tradition?) The Gallican being a translation from the
Septuagint, I'm hoping some Greek and Latin readers will already know this.
When I'm done with my current project I'd like to present the results in
something less monolithic than a single file of 151 Psalms. If there are
traditional subdivisions in the Gallican or other Latin Psalters, perhaps
someone here can direct me to where I'd find that?
Thank you,
