Description: Shell script compiler
SHC is a generic shell script compiler.
It takes a script, which is specified on the command line and produces
C source code. The generated source code is then compiled and linked to
produce a stripped binary.
.
The compiled binary will still be dependent on the shell specified in
the first line of the shell code, thus shc does not create completely
independent binaries.
.
shc itself is not a compiler such as cc,
it rather encodes and encrypts a shell script and generates C source
code with the added expiration capability. It then uses the system
compiler to compile a stripped binary which behaves exactly like the
original script. Upon execution, the compiled binary will decrypt and
execute the code with the shells' -c option.
