INSTALL(1-BSD)      RISC/os Reference Manual       INSTALL(1-BSD)



NAME
     install - install binaries

SYNOPSIS
     install [ -c ] [ -mmode ] [ -oowner ] [ -ggroup ] [ -s ]
     file1 file2

     install [ -c ] [ -mmode ] [ -oowner ] [ -ggroup ] [ -s ]
     file1 ... fileN directory

DESCRIPTION
     The file(s) are moved (or copied if the -c option is speci-
     fied) to the target file or directory.  If the destination
     is a directory, then the file is moved into directory with
     its original file-name.  If the target file already exists,
     it is overwritten.

     The mode is set to 755; the -m option may be used to specify
     an alternate mode.

     The -o and -g options may be used to specify an owner and/or
     group, respectively.

     The -s option causes the file to be stripped.  It is an
     error to attempt to strip a file not in the a.out format,
     but not to attempt to strip a file that has already been
     stripped.

     install refuses to move a file onto itself.

     Installing ``/dev/null'' creates an empty file.

RETURN VALUE
     Upon successful completion a value of 0 is returned.  Other-
     wise, a value of 1 is returned.
