NAME
     par - Quake pak archiving utility

SYNOPSIS
     par -c | -l | -x [-fhtvV] archive [file list]

DESCRIPTION
     Par  is  an  archiving  program which processes pak files used by Quake and
     QuakeII.  A pak archive contains only the file names -- together  with  the
     path  below  id1 (QuakeI) and baseq2 (Quake2) -- and the file data. Neither
     access permissions nor time stamps are stored.

ACTIONS
     One of the following actions must be specified:

     -c     create a new archive

     -l     list the contents of the specified archive

     -x     extract files from the specified archive

OPTIONS
     -f     Force some actions, suppress error messages

     -h     Display some helpful information on stdout and exit successfully.

     -t     the files to process are specified in the files given by file list

     -v     be more talkative

     -V     Display version and compilation info on  stdout  and  exit	success-
	    fully.

RETURN VALUE
     On success, 0 is returned. On error, a value >0 is returned.

ERRORS
     1	    a program bug has seen the light

     2	    the error is different from those explained above

EXAMPLES
     Extract map base1.bsp from pak0.pak:

     par -xv pak0.pak maps/base1.bsp

     Create a list with the names of all maps from in pak0.pak:

     par -l pak0.pak | grep .bsp > list

     Extract the files specified in list:

     par -xvt pak0.pak list

     Create a new archive from these maps:

     par -cvt pak9.pak list

     Replace pak0.pak by an empty archive :-)

     par -cv pak0.pak
