| |
| <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=2><td><tr><td width=20><td> |
| |
| <i>Bundle</i> writes on its standard output a shell script for <a href="../man1/rc.html"><i>rc</i>(1)</a> |
| or a Bourne shell which, when executed, will recreate the original |
| <i>files</i>. Its main use is for distributing small numbers of text |
| files by <a href="../man1/mail.html"><i>mail</i>(1)</a>. |
| <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table> |
| |
| Although less refined than standard archives from <i>9ar</i> (see <a href="../man1/9c.html"><i>9c</i>(1)</a>) |
| or <a href="../man1/tar.html"><i>tar</i>(1)</a>, a <i>bundle</i> file is self-documenting and complete; little |
| preparation is required on the receiving machine.<br> |
