- Short: Unix .shar dearchiver for PPC, incl. source
- Type: util/arc
- Uploader: Andreas_Kleinert@t-online.de
- Author: Eddy Carroll
-
- The docs originally said about this program
-
- "Unshar is a utility which extracts files from the ubiquitous
- Unix shar archives. It has the following advantages over
- existing unshar utilities:
-
- - Small and fast
- - Handles many cat and sed formats
- - Allows extraction of subdirectories
- - Understands ./file type filenames
- - Understands file continuation with >>
- - Sorts file list by Subject: line
- - Exits cleanly with CTRL-C"
-
- This is a port for powerUP (TM) PPC systems.
-
- ELF binary is called "unshar.elf", "e" bit already set
- (so that you can run it directly from Shell using the
- ElfLoadSeg patch - otherwise please use "RunElf").
-
- For changes (basically only smakefile + SCOPTIONS had to be
- added) see the file "changes.powerup" in the "src" directory.
-
- The program itself does seem to work fine - successfully has
- been tested on "mcvert-216.shar" (which BTW is available as
- PPC port, too).
