marc

MARC(1) 							  LOCAL COMMANDS							   MARC(1)

NAME

       marc - archive merger

SYNOPSIS

       marc tgtarc srcarc [ files ... ]

DESCRIPTION

       Reads files from the arc archive srcarc and add them to the arc archive tgtarc.

HISTORY

       Arc has been in use in the CP/M and MSDOS world for many years.	Thom Henderson developed the original version, but it is important to note
       that arc is based on the file compression theories developed by Huffman, Welch, Knott, Knuth, and many other scientists.  This  implementa-
       tion is based on version 5.21 of the MSDOS program.

BUGS

       Arc  behaves  just  like  the  PC version of the program; all functions of the "usage" display are working.  Full compatibility with PC ARC
       files is maintained, the price for which is that arc doesn't like long filenames, and can only archive files with names of up to 12 charac-
       ters.  It will *sometimes* do The Right Thing with them, but I suggest you put long-winded filenames in a "shar" before arcing them.

       There shouldn't be any problems, (hah!) but if you find any, please send them to me at:

	    hyc@hanauma.jpl.nasa.gov
