Description: archive file manipulation program
Afio manipulates groups of files, copying them within or between
filesystems and an afio archive.
.
Afio archives are portable as they contain only ASCII-formatted header
information. Afio makes cpio-format archives. Afio deals somewhat
gracefully with input data corruption. Afio supports multi-volume
archives during interactive operation. Afio can make compressed
archives that are much safer than compressed tar or cpio archives.
.
Afio is best used as an `archive engine' in a backup script.
