Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm shar
|
|
.Nd create a shell archive of files
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Nm
|
|
.Ar
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
command writes a
|
|
.Xr sh 1
|
|
shell script to the standard output which will recreate the file
|
|
hierarchy specified by the command line operands.
|
|
Directories will be recreated and must be specified before the
|
|
files they contain (the
|
|
.Xr find 1
|
|
utility does this correctly).
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
command is normally used for distributing files by
|
|
.Xr ftp 1
|
|
or
|
|
.Xr mail 1 .
|
|
.Sh EXAMPLES
|
|
To create a shell archive of the program
|
|
.Xr ls 1
|
|
and mail it to Rick:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
cd ls
|
|
shar `find . -print` \&| mail -s "ls source" rick
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
To recreate the program directory:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
mkdir ls
|
|
cd ls
|
|
\&...
|
|
<delete header lines and examine mailed archive>
|
|
\&...
|
|
sh archive

|
.Sh HISTORY
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
command appeared in
|
|
.Bx 4.4 .
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
command makes no provisions for special types of files or files containing
|
|
magic characters.
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
command cannot handle files without a newline ('\\n')
|
|
as the last character.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
It is easy to insert trojan horses into
|
|
.Nm
|
|
files.
|
|
It is strongly recommended that all shell archive files be examined
|
|
before running them through
|
|
.Xr sh 1 .
|
|
Archives produced using this implementation of
|
|
.Nm
|
|
may be easily examined with the command:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
egrep -v '^[X#]' shar.file
