unshar - extract files from shell archive(s)
SSSSYYYYNNNNTTTTAAAAXXXX
unshar [-t] [-b] [-v] [-xfile] [file(s)]
OOOOPPPPTTTTIIIIOOOONNNNSSSS
Options are processed by ggggeeeettttooooppppttttssss((((3333))))....
----tttt Do not extract files, just list the files in the
archive(s).
----bbbb Extract files from the archive(s) brutally, with no
regard at all to things such as testing if the file
exists, or chmoding the file etc. Currently this is the
only method supported, but other methods would be easy to
add.
----vvvv Be verbose. Used only for debugging purposes.
----xxxxffffiiiilllleeee Extract the named file from the shell archive. If the -x
flag is used, only those files specified will be
extracted.

_U_n_s_h_a_r extracts files from one or more shell archives, and places
them in the current directory. It does no forking to achieve
this, and is relatively fast. If no file name is given as an
agrumemt, _u_n_s_h_a_r will use standard input. At the moment _u_n_s_h_a_r
is very simple-minded, and does its extraction rather brutally.
The code has been written to allow more intelligent unarchiving
methods to be added.
