NAME
|
|
dlb - NetHack data librarian
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
dlb { xct } [ vfIC ] arguments... [ files... ]
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
Dlb is a file archiving tool in the spirit (and tradition) of tar for
|
|
NetHack version 3.1 and higher. It is used to maintain the archive
|
|
files from which NetHack reads special level files and other read-only
|
|
information. Note that like tar the command and option specifiers are
|
|
specified as a continuous string and are followed by any arguments
|
|
required in the same order as the option specifiers.
|
|
|
|
^?ALLDOCS This facility is optional and may be excluded during NetHack
|
|
configuration. ^: ^?DLB This facility is optional but is included in
|
|

|

COMMANDS
|
|
The x command causes dlb to extract the contents of the archive into
|
|
the current directory.
|
|
|
|
The c command causes dlb to create a new archive from files in the cur-
|
|
rent directory.
|
|
|
|
The t command lists the files in the archive.
|
|
|
|

|
|

|
|
|
|
I lfile specify the file containing the list of files to put in to
|
|
or extract from the archive if no files are listed on the command line.
|
|
Default for archive creation if no files are listed is LIBLISTFILE.
|
|
|
|

|
|
any files (including the archive and the lfile).

BUGS
|
|
Not a good tar emulation; - does not mean stdin or stdout. Should
|
|
include an optional compression facility. 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.
