 Invoking the `shar' program
 ***************************
 
    The format of the `shar' command is one of:
 
      shar [ OPTION ] ... FILE ...
      shar -S [ OPTION ] ...
 
    In the first form, the file list is given as command arguments.  In
 the second form, the file list is read from standard input.  The
 resulting archive is sent to standard output unless the `-o' option is
 given.
 
    Options can be given in any order.  Some options depend on each
 other: the `-o' option is required if the `-l' or `-L' option is used.
 The `-n' option is required if the `-a' option is used.  Also see `-V'
 below.
 
    Some options are special purpose:
 
 `--help'
      Print a help summary on standard output, then immediately exits.
 
 `--version'
      Print the version number of the program on standard output, then
      immediately exits.
 
 `-q'
 `--quiet'
      Verbose *off* at `shar' time.  Messages are usually issued on
      standard error to let the user follow the progress, while making
      the archives.  This option inhibits these messages.
