License : GPLv3+ and (GPLv3+ and BSD) and (LGPLv3+ or BSD) and LGPLv2+ and Public Domain and GFDL
Description : The sharutils package contains the GNU shar utilities, a set of tools for
: encoding and decoding packages of files (in binary or text format) in
: a special plain text format called shell archives (shar). This format can be
: sent through e-mail (which can be problematic for regular binary files). The
: shar utility supports a wide range of capabilities (compressing, uuencoding,
: splitting long files for multi-part mailings, providing check-sums), which
: make it very flexible at creating shar files. After the files have been sent,
: the unshar tool scans mail messages looking for shar files. Unshar
: automatically strips off mail headers and introductory text and then unpacks
: the shar files.
