GNU `shar' makes so-called shell archives out of many files,
preparing them for transmission by electronic mail services, while
`unshar' helps unpacking shell archives after reception. Other tools
help using `shar' with the electronic mail system, and even allow
synchronization of remote directory trees. This is release 4.6.3.
