Is there a version of UNIX shar for the amiga SHELL?
It seems to me that it should not be all that difficult to implement
it, and it would reduce the amount of work to get some ftp'ed files up and
running in my amiga.
Now I use a sparcstation to de-archive.
Any clues...

I think the main problem is that there is no '<<' operator to enable input from the shar file itself. It would be reasonably easy to write something in Arexx, however. -larry -- It is not possible to both understand and appreciate Intel CPUs. -D.Wolfskill +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | // Larry Phillips | | \X/ lphillips@lpami.wimsey.bc.ca -or- uunet!van-bc!lpami!lphillips | | COMPUSERVE: 76703,4322 -or- 76703.4322@compuserve.com | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+

Really the only reason this program exists is because 'unbob' stopped working on me about 5 months ago, and 'shar' has always guru'd when I run it with the '-u' switch. The obvious solution was to write a program which wouldn't crash. To extract files from a shell archive, invoke UNSH with the name of the shell archive: E.g: UNSH filename Running UNSH without any parameters will produce a short usage note, and the revision number. -Sullivan Segall _________________________________________________________________ /V\ Sullivan was the first to learn how to jump without moving.
