NuFile eXchange (NuFX) Archive Utility NuLib v3.0 Documentation By Andy McFadden Updated September 21, 1990 Overview -------- NuLib is a shell-based NuFX archive utility, based loosely on "ARC" for the IBM PC and "ar" under UNIX. It allows you to perform certain operations on the same archives used by ShrinkIt (hence the name), including view archive contents, add to archive, extract from archive, and delete from archive. In addition, it will list and unpack files from Binary II archives. This program is primarily targeted at users of non-Apple II computer systems, from IBM PC compatibles to Sun workstations to DEC Vaxen. It will also be of use to people who use a GS/OS shell on the Apple //gs, such as APW, ORCA, or ECP-16 (although it is considerably slower than ShrinkIt). NuLib may require up to 256K of free RAM to function properly. Background ---------- An archive is a collection of one or more files stored as a single file. This allows groups of related files to be stored under a single filename, reducing directory clutter, and makes it possible to transfer groups of files without the use of a batch transfer utility. To reduce the space required to store the archives and the time it takes to transfer archives, most popular archiving programs automatically compress files as they are stored. Two popular compression methods are Huffman (variable-size codes are used, with smaller codes assigned to bytes that appear frequently) and Lempel-Ziv-Welch (LZW; finds common substrings in the file). Popular archiving programs include "BLU" (Apple II), "ShrinkIt" (Apple II), "GS/ShrinkIt" (Apple IIgs), "ARC"/"PKARC" (MS-DOS), "PKZIP" (MS-DOS), "lharc" (MS-DOS/Amiga), "zoo" (MS-DOS/Amiga), "PackIt" (Macintosh), "StuffIt" (Macintosh), "tar" (UNIX), and "ar" (UNIX). UNIX archivers don't generally compress files; a separate program (called "compress" of all things) is usually used. NuLib works with archives that ShrinkIt produces (NuFX). New Features/Bug Fixes ---------------------- Major changes since last release: + Can perform ShrinkIt LZW-I compression (at last!). + UNIX compression/decompression now supported. + New archive output format (-TA). + Can view comments without extracting anything (M suboption). How to Use NuLib ---------------- Usage: nulib option[suboption] archive [filespec1] [filespec2] [...] "option" is a single character, as specified below. "suboption" is one or more characters, which modify the performance of the option (see each specific option for details). "archive" is the name of a NuFX archive. It doesn't need to exist for the add, create, and move options. "filespecN" is the name of a file, either on disk or in the archive. More than one file may be named on the command line. The option/suboption string may be entered in upper or lower case, and may be preceeded by a hyphen (ex: "nulib -XT0 ..." is equivalent to "nulib -xt0 ..." and "nulib xt0 ..."). Suboptions may be entered in any order. Side note: Under APW, both the archive filename and all file specifications relating to files ON DISK are expanded by NuLib (device names, wildcards, etc). Under UNIX, all filename expansion and wildcards are handled by the shell or the kernal. The filenames of files in the ARCHIVE do not undergo wildcard expansion on any system. Examples: $ nulib av foo.shk file1 subdir/file2 Adds "file1" and "subdir/file2" to "foo.shk", listing each file as it is archived. $ nulib av foo.shk subdir Recursively adds all files in subdir and all files in subdirectories of subdir. $ nulib mv foo.shk =.doc (APW) $ nulib mv foo.shk *.doc (UNIX) $ nulib mv foo.shk *.doc (MS-DOS) Adds all files with the suffix ".doc" to the archive "foo.shk", listing them as it goes, then deletes them from the disk. $ nulib d+ foo.shk work/ Deletes all files in "foo.shk" that start with "work/"; this would likely be used to delete all files archived from the directory "work". No output is produced. The various options are: *** Add/Append files: nulib A[V][U|C<value>|S<value>][R][F<type>[/<aux>]] archive files Quickly appends the specified files to the end of the archive. This option does not scan the archive to see if the files already exist, and will create a new archive file if one is not found. This option corresponds roughly to A)dd files on the ShrinkIt menu. If you add files from the current directory or a subdirectory of the current directory, then the entire partial pathname is stored (ex: "nulib av fubar.shk foo/bar/filename" will store "foo/bar/filename" in the archive "fubar.shk.") If you add files from directory that is not a subdirectory of the current directory, only the filename will be stored (ex: "nulib av fubar.shk ../zip/bang/filename" will store "filename" in the archive). Unfortunately, this does not work under UNIX, since filenames are expanded by the kernal instead of by NuLib. Wildcards are allowed, and subdirectories are recursively descended (the depth is limited only by the maximum length of a pathname and the number of files in the subdirectories), unless the R suboption is used. The R suboption will prevent subdirectories from being processed, so that "nulib av fubar.shk *" under UNIX will add all files in the current directory, but will not descend into any subdirectories. The V suboption displays the filenames as they are added. The U suboption adds a file without compressing it. The C suboption allows you to insert a file in the archive with a specific compression algorithm (specified by the argument "value", which must immediately follow the suboption - no spaces between. Ex: "nulib ac5v fubar.shk file1" would store "file1" in "fubar.shk" using 16-bit UNIX-style compression). "value" corresponds to the appopriate thread_format as specified in the section on compression methods. The S suboption does not compress the file, but will store it as if it were by setting the thread_format field to "value". One use for this is adding compressed files without having to uncompress them first (ex: "nulib as1 foo.shk file1.qq" adds a squeezed file). This suboption could conceivably cause a NuFX extractor to crash; please don't use it unless you are sure of what you are doing. Note also that some compression methods (like ShrinkIt LZW) require both the "compressed length" and "uncompressed length" values to be correct; use of this suboption will (incorrectly) set them both to the current file length. Only one of U, C, or S may be specified. The F suboption allows specification of the filetype attribute. It should be three characters long, and will be matched against a list of standard ProDOS file types. Common ones are "BIN" (binary), "TXT" (text), "SRC" (source code), "OBJ" (object code), "EXE" (executable), and "NON" (typeless, the default). Both upper and lower case letters will match. If the filetype is followed by a "/", then the auxtype field will also be set. NuLib expects the auxtype to be a four-byte hexadecimal number; entering less than four digits could cause the auxtype to be misinterpreted. A good example is storing APW C source files: "nulib cvfSRC/000a nulib.shk file1.c file2.c ...". Adding comments is not currently supported. *** Binary II Operations nulib B[X][V][T<value>][I] binary2-archive [archived-files] This option is included for compatibility with the older Binary II standard, since it is still in use by many communications programs. With no suboptions, this will list the information on the archived files specified by "archived-files". The X suboption extracts the named files from the archive, unsqueezing them if necessary. If the archived-files parameter is omitted, then all files will be listed or extracted. Note that matches are case-independent. When the V suboption is used in conjunction with the X suboption, the names of the archived files are printed as they are extracted. The V suboption has no effect otherwise. The T suboption will perform a text substitution as it works; see the section of conversion of line terminators for more information. If the filename of an extracted file would conflict with an existing file, the file will be overwritten and a message will be printed. If the "I" suboption is used, then NuLib will give an "overwrite (y/n)?" prompt. An affirmative answer overwrites the file; a negative answer will skip the file and continue processing. Attempting to perform NuFX operations on a Binary II archive will fail. If the file appears to be Binary II format, then a message indicating this will be printed. Providing transparent support for Binary II archives is not impossible, but isn't needed often enough to be worth doing. *** Create Archive nulib C[V][U|C<value>|S<value>][R][F<type>[/<aux>]] archive files This is identical to the A option, but the "creating archive" message is suppressed. *** Delete from Archive nulib D[V][+] archive archived-files Deletes the named files from the archive. NuLib scans the archive, marking all records that start with the characters in the file specification (case-independent). If all files are marked for deletion, then the archive file itself is deleted. Otherwise, a new archive is created, the unmarked records are transferred, and the old archive is deleted. An error during this process will leave the original archive unmodified. Note that this does not require an exact match if the "+" suboption is used; "nulib d+ fubar.shk foo" will delete "foo", "Foozle", "food/recipies" and "food/stock." The V suboption prints the list of marked records. *** Freshen Archive nulib F[V][U|C<value>|S<value>][R][F<type>[/<aux>]] archive files Updates files in the archive, but doesn't add any new files. Creates a new archive file, and either transfers the old record or adds the file depending on which is more recent. Only exact filename matches are allowed (case-independent), including partial paths. The archive being updated must already exist. Wildcards are allowed, and subdirectories are automatically expanded unless the R suboption is used. The V suboption displays the filenames as they are added. The U/C/S/F suboptions, explained under A)dd, only apply to files being added to the archive or being updated (files that aren't updated are left unaltered). Files that are updated will retain their previous filetype. New files will get either the default filetype, the filetype specified by the F suboption, or the actual filetype (under APW only) in that order. *** Command Help nulib H[NWS] Displays a help screen. Three screens are available. "nulib h" alone displays help on the options. The N suboption gives help with numbers; it lists the known compression methods and text translation types. The W suboption gives a brief listing of contributors, and how to contact me. The S suboption gives help on the suboptions. *** Integrity Check nulib I[V] archive Verifies that the archive is intact. Does not modify the archive in any way. The V suboption prints a list of CRCs for each entire record (this is different from those listed by the TZ option, which are only for the record headers and (sometimes) threads; this includes not only the headers but *all* data as well). At present this doesn't do much but read the file, unless the record_version is $0002 or greater (which means that the data has a checksum stored; currently these records are only generated by GS/ShrinkIt). the main purpose of the V suboption is to make a list of CRCs that can be sent along with the archive. *** Move Files to Archive nulib M[V][U|C<value>|S<value>][R][F<type>[/<aux>]] archive files This is identical to the A option, but the files are deleted after they are added to the archive. Note that the actual directory files are NOT deleted, unless they were given distinct record entries (neither NuLib nor P8 ShrinkIt do). Care should be taken to avoid trying to M)ove an archive into itself. The act of adding may (depending on the OS and the archive) go into an infinite loop creating a huge file, and the coup de grace is when NuLib then deletes the archive you were adding to. *** Print an Archived File nulib P[V][T<value>][+] archive files Print the contents of an archived file without extracting it. Useful for viewing archived text files without having to actually unpack them. Note this only allows viewing of data_threads; resource forks and disk images will not be displayed, and comments are not shown. I take no responsibility for pagination or filtering if funky control characters... The V suboption will print the file's name right before it is extracted. The + suboption allows you to specify the first part of a pathname; see the D or X options for details. The T suboption will perform a text substitution as it works; see the section on conversion of line terminators for more information. *** Table of Contents nulib T[VAZ] archive With no suboptions, this lists only the filenames of the archived files. Not only does this make it easier to view the archive contents (the ShrinkIt format filename field is about 20 characters wide; this is 80), but the output is suitable for transmission via a pipe to other utilities. Using the V suboption will make it use ShrinkIt v2.0 output format (same as using the V option); it is included as a suboption mainly for people used to "ar". Using the A suboption will produce a list similar to the output of ARC or ZOO. Using the Z suboption will dump everything known about the archive, including all information in headers, CRCs, relative file position, sizes of individual threads, etc. *** Update Archive nulib U[V][U|C<value>|S<value>][R][F<type>[/<aux>]] archive files Updates files in the archive, keeping the archived file or the file listed on the command line, whichever is most recent (or exists). Creates a new archive file, and either transfers the old record or adds the file. Only exact filename matches are allowed (case-independent), including partial pathnames. The archive being updated must already exist. Wildcards are allowed, and subdirectories are automatically expanded unless the R suboption is used. The V suboption displays the filenames as they are added. The U/C/S/F suboptions, explained under A)dd, only apply to files being added to the archive (files that aren't updated are left unaltered). Note that the order of files in the archive will be preserved. Files that are updated will retain their previous filetype. New files will get either the default filetype, the filetype specified by the F suboption, or the actual filetype (under APW only) in that order. *** Verbose Archive Listing nulib V archive Lists the archive contents in a format indentical to that used by the ShrinkIt v2.0 L)ist archive contents option. *** Extract from Archive nulib X[V][T<value>][U][I][M][+] archive [archived-files] nulib E... The X and E options are synonymous. Extract the archived-files from the archive. If the file already exists, you are asked if you want to overwrite it. If part of a partial pathname does not exist, the subdirectory will be created. Omitting the "archived-files" specification will cause the entire archive to be unpacked. When files are archived, a pathname separator is stored (e.g., "/" for ProDOS and UNIX, "\" for MS-DOS, ":" for Mac HFS). During extraction, the pathnames are broken down into component file names, converted to names legal under the current operating system, and then recombined using the pathname separator for the current OS. This facilitates extraction of files archived under any OS, but can lead to filename conflicts that didn't exist when the files were added (e.g., a UNIX file that contained a backslash is unpacked under MS-DOS). If the filename of an extracted file would conflict with an existing file, the file will be overwritten and a message will be printed. If the "I" suboption is used, then NuLib will give an "overwrite (y/n)?" prompt. An affirmative answer overwrites the file; a negative answer will skip the file and continue processing. Note that extraction does not require an exact match if the "+" suboption is specified; "nulib x+ fubar.shk foo" will extract "FOO", "Foozle", "food/recipies" and "food/stock." This makes it possible to extract entire subdirectories at a time. The V suboption prints the list of marked records. If comments are present, then the V suboption also prints those as it extracts. Using the M suboption will cause the comments to be printed, but the files will not be extracted. **NOTE**: the exact use of the M suboption has not been entirely settled. Since it may be desirable to extract comments into a file, future versions of NuLib may use eXtract to put them in a file and Print to view them. Comments welcome, caveat emptor, have a nice day. The T suboption will perform a text substitution as it extracts; see the section on converson of line terminators for more information. The U suboption will extract the files without uncompressing them. This is rarely useful, but is easy to implement and is present for the curious. Non-NuFX files -------------- NuLib will only work with Binary II and NuFX archives. If you try to view some other kind of file, you will get an error message and an indication of what kind of file NuLib thinks it is. NuLib can recognize files processed with compress, Zip, Zoo, StuffIt, ar, shar, GIF, and many others. Compression Methods ------------------- The following methods are defined in the NuFX documentation: (# = method number, Name = method name [abbreviation], Pack? and Unpack? refer to the ability of NuLib to perform that operation using the given compression method. # Name Pack? Unpack? 00 Uncompressed [unc] Y Y 01 SQueezed [squ] N Y 02 Dynamic LZW I (ShrinkIt) [shk] Y Y 03 Dynamic LZW II (ShrinkIt) [sh2] N N 04 12-bit UNIX Compress [u12] Y Y 05 16-bit UNIX Compress [u16] Y Y Attempting to use a compression method that does not exist will result in an error message like "[can't squeeze; storing]...". This means that the compression method you requested is unavailable, and it simply stored the file without compression. If you try to extract a file that has been compressed with an algorithm that NuLib is not familiar with, an error message will be printed and the file will not be extracted. Converting Line Terminators --------------------------- Different operating systems use different line terminators in text files. The table below shows them for some popular systems: Operating System Line Terminator Apple ProDOS CR ($0d) UNIX LF ($0a) MS-DOS CRLF ($0d0a) While NuLib will know what kind of terminators the operating system it is running under uses, it cannot reliably determine what kind an archived file uses. Thus, the terminator used on the system where the file was created must be specified. Note that text translation should *not* be performed on non-ASCII files (non-ASCII means anything other than pure text; word processing files and executables are two examples of files that should *never* have text translation performed on them). Doing so will probably ruin the file, causing strange errors. Because of the wide range of files that NuLib must handle, it is impossible to automatically determine which files are binaries and which are text. In order to tell NuLib what format to expect, you have to specify a value parameter (although it will default to zero if you don't). The following examples illustrate their usage: nulib xt0 ... Convert from CR (Apple II -> current system) nulib xt1 ... Convert from LF (UNIX -> current system) nulib xt2 ... Convert from CRLF (MS-DOS -> current system) Shell Variables --------------- NuLib looks for a shell variable called "NULIBOPT" to get default values for certain things. This must be an environment variable ("setenv" using csh, "set" and "export" using sh or APW), and may contain the following: verbose Default to Verbose output (otherwise Silent). type=xxx Default type for storing files (under UNIX or MS-DOS). "xxx" should match the 3-letter ProDOS abbreviation (NON, BIN, TXT, SRC). Normally "NON". aux=xxxx Default auxtype for storing files (under UNIX or MS-DOS). "xxxx" is a four-character hex number (000a, 8002, abcd). Normally "0000". interactive Default to Interactive mode (prompt before overwriting files). compress=n Set default compression to type n. This is useful if you prefer 16-bit UNIX compress (which would be compress=5). Note that the type= and aux= settings do NOT apply when running under APW. Files will be stored with their actual filetypes, regardless of the variable setting. Also, the 'F' suboption will override these settings. An example from csh: setenv NULIBOPT type=BIN,compress=5,interactive ** WARNING: As of this writing, GS/ShrinkIt and ShrinkIt v3.03 are not able to extract files compressed with UNIX compress. It is likely that GS/ShrinkIt will be able to in the future, but the //e version of ShrinkIt will probably never handle them. Error Handling -------------- Many errors simply cause the program to exit, leaving the archive in an uncertain state (which sounds fairly evil). If you were extracting, deleting, viewing, or updating when the error occurred, the worst that can happen is you will be left with a bogus temporary file in the current directory (something like "nulib.tmp5610"). If you were adding to an existing archive, the files that were there will be unharmed, but additional files will not appear, and the archive will be oversized. This is because the master header block (which keeps a count of the number of records in the archive) is written last. If you were creating a new archive, the file will be guano. This is because, as mentioned before, the Master Header Block is not written until the very end. Since NuLib identifies NuFX archives by looking at certain bytes in the MHB, the file will not be identifiable as NuFX. Note that the M)ove option is safer than it looks, because files on disk are not deleted until the archive is safely closed. Revision History ---------------- NuLib v3.0 (Sep 1990): - added ability to compress files using ShrinkIt LZW-I compression (replaces "fake" compression used previously). - added "compress" parameter to NULIBOPT environment variable. - added ARCZOO output format for people used to MS-DOS archivers. - added M suboption for comment ("message") printing. NuLib v2.3 (May 1990 - not released): - addition of UNIX compress. - threw in some benchmarks. NuLib v2.2 - v2.22 (Apr 1990): - second release as NuLib (after a brief vacation). - fixed incompatibility problems with GS/ShrinkIt and ShrinkIt v3.0. - added some support for comments. - unpacks disk archives to files (good for the UNIX Apple ][+ simulator). - fake compression correctly handles files that don't compress (it used to store them as compressed whether or not they got smaller). - various minor changes/improvements (more help screens, etc).

CShrink v2.07 (Sep 1989): - Another name change (legal reasons). - UNIX port completed. - Binary II operations are fully functional. - some compression code added (unSQueeze, fake ShrinkIt pack). - '+' suboption added. - text translation improved. - printing of archived files (P option) now works. NuARC v2.03 (Aug 1989): - first NuARC distribution (APW executable only). - added subdirectory expansion. - added suboption processing. - replaced buffered I/O (fopen(), fread(), etc) on files with lower-level read()/write() routines. - added automatic byte-order determination. - implemented move, extract all, and update/freshen. - added Print archived file option. - added Verbose, Text translation, and Uncompressed storage suboptions. - wrote this documentation. NuARC v2.0 (Aug 1989): - added archive manipulation routines (EXtract, Add and Delete for uncompressed archived files). - added filename-only output format. - added CRC verification. - added byte order and data element size checks. - removed the LAMESEEK option. NuView v1.2 (July 1989): - major overhaul of all source code to make it work under APW C. - new //gs-specific routines added. - minor alterations to output format. NuView v1.1 (June 1989): - major rewrite of the way archives are read (had problems with machines requiring word-alignment of data). - added thread file position storage to internal archive structure. - fixed non-(void) sprintf() bug. NuView v1.0 (May 1989): - initial release. - works only on a Sun 3/50 running BSD UNIX. Limitations ----------- I can now safely say that NuLib works with records containing more than one thread (i.e., comments and resource forks). Comments can be printed, but (for the present) can't be added. The big problem this program has is speed. Since it is meant to be portable first and efficient second, it won't run as fast as something like ShrinkIt (written entirely in assembly). What I envision is people using ShrinkIt at home on their Apple //s, but NuLib on UNIX systems or other microcomputers. This will facilitate transfers of large compressed files, which can then be quickly unpacked on the destination system (which will likely have greater computing power, or a C compiler more efficient than APW). System Dependencies ------------------- When compiling this on a Sun 3/50, I noticed a problem: the byte ordering for the //gs (65816) and the Sun (68020) are backward. The present version of NuLib will automatically determine the byte ordering and treat data appropriately (although this may fail if the data size definitions are wrong). There are definitions for one byte, two byte, and four byte variable types; my compiler uses char, short, and long. If these are different for your compiler, be sure to change the typedefs in "nudefs.h". If you don't have 8-bit bytes, though, it may not work (most machines do). Notes on UNIX implementation: If this is being run under UNIX, you should #define UNIX in "nudefs.h". This will enable certain UNIX functions (like system() calls and time routines), and disable others (like file types and "binary mode" for file I/O). If this is being run under BSD UNIX, you should also #define BSD43 in "nudefs.h"; certain small differences were unavoidable (strrchr() vs rindex()). Under APW, breaking down the full pathnames into relative pathnames is easy (and should be under MS-DOS as well...). Under UNIX ".." is an actual directory link, so obtaining a fully expanded pathname with no redundancies is difficult. Thus, storing "dir1/../dir1/foo" would appear as "dir1/foo" under APW but "dir1/../dir1/foo" under UNIX. Care must be taken when extracting such files on non-UNIX systems; they are best avoided entirely. One nasty pitfall is using "~/foo" under the C shell... If the UNIX owner access permissions include write permission, the file will be stored as unlocked. If write permission is denied, it will be stored as locked. As far as dates are concerned, the modification and access times will both be set to the modification time. Notes on //gs implementation: There is very little //gs-specific code, except where absolutely necessary (time routines, file type handling, etc). GS/OS support is absent (extended files are not handled yet, different file systems are not recognized, and pseudo-mixed-case ProDOS filenames are stored as upper case). Some of the faults belong to APW... Unfortunately, the startup code (2/start) provided with APW and the methods of argument passing used by ECP-16 and ProSel-16 aren't compatible. This means that you can run NuLib from ECP or ProSel, but you can't pass it any arguments (which pretty much defeats the purpose...). At any rate, the program is linked with the compression routines in dynamic load segments, so that simple operations should run faster. Additionally, it should be restartable from memory. [actually, the ZapLink version isn't...] There is a bug (not my fault) when using the P option to print a file. The file gets printed on one line for some reason... If you redirect the I/O to a file, everything comes out fine. Weird. APW shell-specific code has been avoided where possible. Places where I couldn't easily work around it include wildcard expansion and ERROR(). It was deliberately used in several places to allow the user to STOP() processing with Apple-period. Notes on MS-DOS implementation: The user interface may be slightly different from the UNIX and APW versions, so that MS-DOS users will feel more at home when using the program. The only major deviation is in the handling of subdirectory expansion. A future version may select the ARC/ZOO output format as default. Bugs / Glitches --------------- UNIX seek uses longs, which are usually four bytes. Signed. If an archive is larger than 2 gigabytes, there may be a problem (cough). Pathnames longer than the #defined maximum (1024 bytes) will not be processed. This is the limit on most machines, and is well in excess of most people's sanity. Pathnames with a null ('\0') in them should generally be avoided. Some partial pathname comparisons may fail because pathname separators vary between operating systems (ex: "foo+" and "foo~" are unpacked under ProDOS, where both are translated to "foo."). Also, you will probably need to be in the same directory each time you U)pdate an archive, or else the partial pathnames won't match (update requires an EXACT match), and you'll end up with two different copies of the same file. A maximum of 255 files may be added/deleted/whatever at at time. Expanded subdirectories count. This is an arbitrary number and is easy to change if someone can convice me that you'd need to archive more than 255 files at a time. The same file may be added/extracted/whatever more than once if the user enters multiple file selectors on the command line ("nulib av foo.shk file1 file1 file1"). This means that U)pdate could insert the same file twice, etc. NuLib does not at present prevent an archive from being added to itself. This can have unfortunate consequences, especially in conjunction with the M)ove option. The ProDOS three-letter filetype names may or may not be the offical Apple versions. Some users may have problems with things like "$00" because '
