NAME
|
|
dlb - NetHack data librarian
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
dlb {c|t|x}[v][C directory] [file] ...
|
|
|
|
dlb {c|t|x}[v]I list-file
|
|
|
|
dlb {c|t|x}[v][f archive-file-name] [file] ...
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
Dlb is a file archiving tool in the spirit (and tradition) of tar(1)
|
|
for nethack(6) version 3.1 and higher. It is used to maintain the
|
|
archive files from which the game reads special level files and other
|
|
read-only information. Note that like tar, the letters specifying the
|
|
operation and options are expressed as a continuous string. Unlike
|
|
tar, dlb is configured with a default set of file names to process.
|
|
|
|
Operations
|
|
c causes dlb to create a new archive from files in the current direc-
|
|
tory.
|
|
|
|
t lists the files in the archive.
|
|
|
|
x causes dlb to extract the contents of the archive into the current
|
|
directory.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
C dir Change directory to dir before trying to read any files.
|
|
|
|
f archive Read from or write to archive instead of LIBFILE (usually
|
|
the nhdat file in the playground).
|
|
|
|
I list-file Read from list-file the names of files to emplace within
|
|
or extract from the archive. The default for archive cre-
|
|
ation is LIBLISTFILE.
|
|
|
|
v Operate verbosely.
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLES
|
|
Create the default archive from the default file list:
|
|
dlb c
|
|
|
|
List the contents of the archive foo:
|
|
dlb tf foo

BUGS
|
|
o Not a good tar emulation; - does not mean stdin or stdout.
|
|
|
|
o Should include an optional compression facility.
|
|
|
|
o Not all read-only files for NetHack can be read out of an archive;
|
|
examining the source is the only way to know which files can be.
