Installing the APGEN Utility
2 -6 893-769-A
On Sun workstations, for example, use the following command to extract the apgen.tar archive
from a QIC24 tape:
% tar xvf /dev/rst8 apgen.tar
• Unpack the apgen.tar archive, using a tar command of this form:
% tar xvf apgen.tar
You can delete the apgen.tar archive when the command completes and the files have been extracted
from the archive.
The tar utility automatically copies files and subdirectories from the apgen.tar archive into the
appropriate directories. For example, this utility copies the APGEN C source file (apgen.c) and other
APGEN files into src/apgen, a subdirectory of src/. It copies MAN pages into the man/cat/and
man/src/ directories. You can change the location of these items when you run the installation script.
Figure 2-3 illustrates this directory structure and shows all the APGEN files in src/apgen/.
