    Summary: The GNU shar utilities for packaging and unpackaging shell archives
    Description: 
    The sharutils package contains the GNU shar utilities, a set of tools
    for encoding and decoding packages of files (in binary or text format)
    in a special plain text format called shell archives (shar).  This
    format can be sent through email (which can be problematic for
    regular binary files).  The shar utility supports a wide range of
    capabilities (compressing, uuencoding, splitting long files for
    multi-part mailings, providing checksums), which make it very flexible
    at creating shar files.  After the files have been sent, the unshar
    tool scans mail messages looking for shar files.  Unshar automatically
    strips off mail headers and introductory text and then unpacks the shar
    files.
