shar

Create a shell archive. More information: https://www.gnu.org/software/sharutils/manual/sharutils.html.

  • Create a shell script that when executed extracts the given files from itself:

shar --vanilla-operation {{path/to/file1 path/to/file2 ...}} > {{path/to/archive.sh}}

  • Compress the files in the archive:

shar --compactor {{xz}} {{path/to/file1 path/to/file2 ...}} > {{path/to/archive.sh}}

  • Treat all files as binary (i.e. uuencode everything):

shar --uuencode {{path/to/file1 path/to/file2 ...}} > {{path/to/archive.sh}}

  • Treat all files as text (i.e. uuencode nothing):

shar --text-files {{path/to/file1 path/to/file2 ...}} > {{path/to/archive.sh}}

  • Include a name and cut mark in the header comment of the archive:

shar --archive-name "{{My files}}" --cut-mark {{path/to/file1 path/to/file2 ...}} > {{path/to/archive.sh}}
