.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.PP
|
|
.I 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.
|
|
.PP
|
|
This facility is optional and may be excluded during NetHack
|
|
configuration.
|
|
.SH COMMANDS
|
|
The
|
|
.B x
|
|
command causes
|
|
.I dlb
|
|
to extract the contents of the archive into the current directory.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The
|
|
.B c
|
|
command causes
|
|
.I dlb
|
|
to create a new archive from files in the current directory.
|

.PP
|
|
The

.SH BUGS
|
|
.PP
|
|
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.
