| Summary : The GNU shar utilities for managing shell archives.
|
Description :
The sharutils package contains the GNU shar utilities, a set of tools
for encoding and decoding packages of files (in binary or text format)
in a special plain text format called shell archives (shar). This
format can be sent through email (which can be problematic for regular
binary files). The shar utility supports a wide range of capabilities
(compressing, uuencoding, splitting long files for multi-part
mailings, providing checksums), which make it very flexible. After the
files have been sent, the unshar tool scans mail messages looking for
shar files. Unshar automatically strips off mail headers and
introductory text and then unpacks the shar files.
