        !            17: 1003.1-1988.

        !            20: 
        !            21: uussttaarr recognizes the following command-line options:
        !            22: 
        !            23: -cc   Create  a  new  archive.  Write  each  _f_i_l_e  into the  newly
        !            24:      created archive
        !            25: 
        !            26: -rr   Append each _f_i_l_e to the end of the archive.
        !            27: 
        !            28: -tt   Display a directory (table of contents) of the archive.
        !            29: 
        !            30: -xx   Extract  each _f_i_l_e  from  the archive.   If  _f_i_l_e matches  a
        !            31:      directory whose contents  had been written onto the archive,
        !            32:      extract that directory  recursively.  If _f_i_l_e does not exist
        !            33:      on the  system, uussttaarr creates  it with the same  mode as the
        !            34:      one  in the  archive, except that  the set-user-id  and get-
        !            35:      group-id  modes  are not  set  unless  you have  appropriate
        !            36:      privileges.
        !            37: 
        !            38:      If _f_i_l_e  exists, uussttaarr does not change  file modes except as
        !            39:      described above.  It  restores the owner, the group, and the
        !            40:      modification time if possible.
        !            41: 
        !            42:      If the command line does not name a _f_i_l_e, uussttaarr extracts the
        !            43:      entire contents of  the archive.  Note that if several files
        !            44:      with  the  same  name  are  in  the archive,  the  last  one
        !            45:      overwrites all earlier ones.
        !            46: 
        !            47: -ff   Use the next argument on the command line as the name of the
        !            48:      archive instead  of the default, which  is standard input or
        !            49:      standard  output, whichever is  appropriate for  the options
        !            50:      given.  Thus,  you can use uussttaarr in a  pipe.  If you specify
        !            51:      `-'  as the  archive  name with  option -ff,  uussttaarr uses  the
        !            52:      default input and output streams.
        !            53: 
        !            54: -ll   Order uussttaarr to report if  it cannot resolve all of the links
        !            55:      to the  files being  archived.  If  -ll is not  specified, no
        !            56:      error  messages are  written to  the standard  output.  This
        !            57:      modifier is valid only with the -cc or -rr options.
        !            58: 
        !            59: -mm   Do not restore  the modification times; set the modification
        !            60:      time of  the file to the time  of extraction.  This modifier
        !            61:      is invalid with the -tt option.

        !            73: 
        !            74: -oo   Give extracted files your user and group identifiers, rather
        !            75:      than those on the archive.  This modifier is only valid with
        !            76:      the -xx option.
        !            77: 
        !            78: -vv   Verbose operation.  With  this option, uussttaarr prints the name
        !            79:      of each  file it processes,  preceded by the  option letter.
        !            80:      With the  -tt option, the -vv option tells  uussttaarr to give more
        !            81:      information  about  the archive's  entries  than just  their
        !            82:      names.
        !            83: 
        !            84: -ww   Print the action to be taken  and the name of the file, then
        !            85:      wait for  your confirmation.  If  you type a  word beginning
        !            86:      with `y', uussttaarr  performs the action.  Any other input means
        !            87:      ``no''.  This modifier is invalid with the -tt option.
