Dave Ihnat's response to my shell archiver script was bogus. He didn't
understand the purpose of the script. The script has nothing to do with
"ar", except that it bundles up a bunch of files into one big file. It does
not use "ar" to do so, but rather produces a shell script containing the
text of the "archived" files. "shar" should work fine as long as "cat" and
the Bourne shell are around.
Sorry for the confusion, Dave.
