QUARK
This program is an archiving program similar to the ones available for PCs. It takes a set of files
and stores them in a compressed format in one file. A suggested use for QUARK is for copying files
between boxes.
:RUN QUARK.LIB.NETBASE;INFO="cmd archive [fileset ...]"
where cmd is:
A: Add files to archive (replace if present)
AP: Add files to archive, purge original
X: Extract files from archive
XL: Extract files, put in local group
XG: Extract files, original groups in login account
XP: Extract files, purge existing copies
XLP: Extract files, put in local group and purge existing copies
D: Delete files from archive
R: Replace files in archive
L: List archive contents
File equations will be used if they are fully qualified.
Note. QUARK does not support KSAM files, files greater than 60,000 sectors, or indirect
files.
Examples
This example adds the file NEWVERSN.PUB.PROD:
:RUN QUARK.LIB;INRO:”A purgeme NEWVERSN.PUB.PROD
This example adds the file NEWVERSN.PUB.PROD to the quark file named PURGEME. This creates
the quark file, if it did not exist.
:HELLO MGR.NETBASE,LIB
:RUN QUARK;INFO="A PURGEME NEWVERSN.PUB.PROD”
This example extracts the files contained in the quark file PURGEME locally. NEWVERSN.PUB.PROD
is extracted as NEWVERSN.TEST.BACKUP.
:HELLO MGR.BACKUP,TEST
:COPY PURGEME.LIB.NETBASE,PURGEME
:RUN QUARK.LIB.NETBASE;INFO=“XL PURGEME”
