SYNOPSIS

       car [options] [paths...]

DESCRIPTION

       Creates	and  decodes portable cross-platform crytographic archives.  An archive can be a collection of files, or an in-stream message that

	      Specify decryption operation on an existing car stream or file.  If no file is specified, stdin is used.

       --digest=name
	      Specify name of digest algorithm.  By default sha will be used.

       --follow
	      Dereference and follow symlinks.	Otherwise they are ignored.

       --output=filename
	      Specify output file for a new archive.  By default stdout is used.

       --overwrite
	      Always overwrite existing files without prompting.

       --quiet
	      Non-interactive and no status output.

       --recursive
	      If argument is a directory, recursively scan directory and any subdirectory contents as arguments.
