ar

AR(1)							      General Commands Manual							     AR(1)

NAME

       ar - archive and library maintainer

SYNOPSIS

       ar key [ posname ] afile name ...

DESCRIPTION

       Ar  maintains  groups  of  files  combined  into  a single archive file.  Its main use is to create and update library files as used by the
       loader.	It can be used, though, for any similar purpose.

       Key is one character from the set drqtpmx, optionally concatenated with one or more of vuaibcl.	Afile is the archive file.  The names  are
       constituent files in the archive file.  The meanings of the key characters are:

       d      Delete the named files from the archive file.

       r      Replace  the named files in the archive file.  If the optional character u is used with r, then only those files with modified dates
	      later than the archive files are replaced.  If an optional positioning character from the set abi is used, then the posname argument
	      must  be present and specifies that new files are to be placed after (a) or before (b or i) posname.  Otherwise new files are placed
	      at the end.

       q      Quickly append the named files to the end of the archive file.  Optional positioning characters are invalid.  The command  does  not
	      check  whether  the added members are already in the archive.  Useful only to avoid quadratic behavior when creating a large archive
	      piece-by-piece.

       t      Print a table of contents of the archive file.  If no names are given, all files in the archive are tabled.   If	names  are  given,
	      only those files are tabled.

       p      Print the named files in the archive.

       m      Move  the  named	files to the end of the archive.  If a positioning character is present, then the posname argument must be present
	      and, as in r, specifies where the files are to be moved.

       x      Extract the named files.	If no names are given, all files in the archive are extracted.	In neither case does x alter  the  archive
	      file.

       v      Verbose.	Under the verbose option, ar gives a file-by-file description of the making of a new archive file from the old archive and
	      the constituent files.  When used with t, it gives a long listing of all information about the files.  When used with p, it precedes
	      each file with a name.

       c      Create.	Normally  ar  will  create  afile when it needs to.  The create option suppresses the normal message that is produced when
	      afile is created.

       l      Local.  Normally ar places its temporary files in the directory /tmp.  This option causes them to be placed in the local directory.

FILES

       /tmp/v*	 temporaries

BUGS

       If the same file is mentioned twice in an argument list, it may be put in the archive twice.
