unshar - extract files from a shell archive
unshar [-d dir] [-cfq] file [files...]
unshar scans files for shell archives and extracts the files contained in those archives. unshar attempts to decode a shar file in a secure fashion. If it can't do so, it will instruct you to inspect something first.
Overwrite existing files.
Change directory to dir before extracting files.
Same as -c.
Shhh!
No environment variables are used.
None.
There are too many existent shar formats for it to handle.
