NAME

       shape_tar - shapeTools RMS bundle up subsystem in a tar or shar archive

SYNOPSIS

       shape tar[VERSIONS=<version_selection_rule>] [ARCHIVE=<filename>]

       shape shar[VERSIONS=<version_selection_rule>] [ARCHIVE=<filename>]

DESCRIPTION

       Shape tar and shape shar create a tar or a shar archive containing  all
       source  components  of  the current node in the system tree. All source
       components listed in the COMPONENTS  macro  in  the  Makefile  and  the
       release  identification  file (VERSIONFILE) are written to the archive.
       Components of subsystems are not included in the archive file.

       The VERSIONS macro may be set to specify a version selection rule to be
       active  during archive file creation. Default is most_recent, selecting
       the most recent version of each component. See shape_stdrul(7)  or  the
       $(SHAPELIBPATH)/stdrules  for other possible settings. You may also use
       self defined version selection rules as VERSIONS.

       ARCHIVE is the base name of the file where the output shall be  written
       to.  Default  is  $(SUBSYSTEMNAME).  The  output file gets the filename
       extension .tar (resp. .shar).  When ARCHIVE=- is given,  data  will  be
       written to standard output.
