-.Dt SHAR 1
-.Os
-.Sh NAME
-.Nm shar
-.Nd create a shell archive of files
-.Sh DEPRECATION NOTICE
-.Nm
-is obsolete and may not be present in
-.Fx 15
-and later.
-Because shell archives are simultaneously data and code and are typically
-interpreted by
-.Xr sh 1 ,
-they can easily be trojan-horsed and pose a significant security risk to users.
-The
-.Xr tar 1
-utility can still produce shar encodings of files if needed.
-The
-.Pa sysutils/freebsd-shar
-port has been created to maintain this version of
-.Nm
-past its deprecation in base.
-.Sh SYNOPSIS
-.Nm
-.Ar
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-The
-.Nm
-command writes a
-.Xr sh 1
-shell script to the standard output which will recreate the file
-hierarchy specified by the command line operands.
-Directories will be recreated and must be specified before the
-files they contain (the
-.Xr find 1
-utility does this correctly).
-.Pp
-The
-.Nm
-command is normally used for distributing files by
-.Xr ftp 1
-or
-.Xr mail 1 .
-.Sh EXAMPLES
-To create a shell archive of the program
-.Xr ls 1
-and mail it to Rick:
-.Bd -literal -offset indent
-cd ls
-shar `find . -print` \&| mail -s "ls source" rick
-.Ed
-.Pp
-To recreate the program directory:
-.Bd -literal -offset indent
-mkdir ls
-cd ls
-\&...
-<delete header lines and examine mailed archive>
-\&...
-sh archive
-.Ed
-.Sh SEE ALSO
-.Xr compress 1 ,
-.Xr mail 1 ,
-.Xr tar 1 ,
-.Xr uuencode 1
-.Sh HISTORY
-The
-.Nm
-command appeared in
-.Bx 4.4 .
-.Sh BUGS
-The
-.Nm
-command makes no provisions for special types of files or files containing
-magic characters.
-The
-.Nm
-command cannot handle files without a newline ('\\n')
-as the last character.
-.Pp
-It is easy to insert trojan horses into
-.Nm
-files.
-It is strongly recommended that all shell archive files be examined
-before running them through
-.Xr sh 1 .
-Archives produced using this implementation of
-.Nm
-may be easily examined with the command:
-.Bd -literal -offset indent
-egrep -av '^[X#]' shar.file
-.Ed
