ARCONVERT( 1) ARCONVERT( 1)
NAME
arconvert - archive conversion tool
SYNOPSIS
arconvert [archive]
DESCRIPTION
Arconvert uses the convert( 1) utility to transform UNIX System Release
5.0 archive files to the UNIX System Release 5.2 archive formal
FILES
If no archive arguments are passed to arconvert, it will transform all files
found in /lib and /usr/lib (and recursively under any of their subdirectories)
whose name ends with the ".a" suffix, and whose type, as reported
by the file( I) utility, is "5.0 archive".
If an argument is passed to arconvert, that file alone will be transformed
if its type, as reported by the file utility, is "5.0 archive".
Any me which is converted is first saved under its pathname, with the
suffix "-old" appended to it.
/tmp/convlibs, /tmp/archives
