okamoto@hpcc01.HP.COM (Jeff Okamoto) (01/08/91)
I like the features that shar3.49 offers, but there is one small thing
that I didn't like: shar prints out some status messages to stderr
while building the sharchve. Since I have an alias which effectively
does shar * >& shar.out you can see how that can cause problems.
I therefore submit context diffs of shar.c and shar.1 which add a new
flag: -q. This flag prevents shar from printing any non-error messages
while it is packing the sharchive. I hope they will be of use to you.
