NAME

     shc - Generic shell script compiler

SYNOPSIS

     shc [ -e date ] [ -m addr ] [ -i iopt ] [ -x cmnd ]
[ -l lopt ] [ -ACDhTv ] -f script

DESCRIPTION

     shc creates a stripped  binary  executable  version  of  the
script specified with -f on the command line.
The binary version will get a .x extension appended and will
usually  be  a  bit  larger  in size than the original ascii
code. Generated C source code is saved in a  file  with  the
extension .x.c
If you supply an expiration date with the -e option the com-
piled  binary  will  refuse to run after the date specified.
The message "Please contact your provider" will be displayed
instead.  This message can be changed with the -m option.
You can compile any kind of shell script, but  you  need  to
supply valid -i, -x and -l options.
The compiled binary will still be  dependent  on  the  shell
specified  in  the  first  line  of  the  shell  code  (i.e.
#!/bin/sh), thus shc does not create completely  independent
binaries.
shc itself is not a compiler such as cc, it  rather  encodes
and encrypts a shell script and generates C source code with
the added expiration capability. It  then  uses  the  system
compiler  to compile a stripped binary which behaves exactly
like the  original  script.  Upon  execution,  the  compiled
binary  will  decrypt and execute the code with the shell -c
option.  Unfortunatelly, it will  not  give  you  any  speed
improvement as a real C program would.
shc's main purpose is to protect  your  shell  scripts  from
modification  or  inspection.  You can use it if you wish to
distribute your scripts but don't want  them  to  be  easily
readable by other people.

OPTIONS

     The command line options are:
-e date
Expiration date in dd/mm/yyyy format [none]
-m message
message to display  upon  expiration  ["Please  contact
your provider"]
-f script_name
File name of the script to compile
-i inline_option
Inline option for the shell interpreter i.e: -e
-x comand
eXec    command,    as    a    printf    format    i.e:
exec(\\'%s\\',@ARGV);
-l last_option
Last shell option i.e: --
-r   Relax security. Make  a  redistributable  binary  which
executes  on different systems running the same operat-
ing system.
-v   Verbose compilation
-D   Switch on debug exec calls
-T   Allow binary to be  traceable  (using  strace,  ptrace,
truss, etc.)
-C   Display license and exit
-A   Display abstract and exit
-h   Display help and exit

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

     CC   C compiler command [cc]
CFLAGS
C compiler flags [none]

EXAMPLES

     Compile a script which can be run on other systems with  the
trace option enabled:
example% shc -v -r -T -f myscript

BUGS

     The  maximum  size  of the script that could be executed once com�
piled is limited by the operating system  configuration  parameter
_SC_ARG_MAX (see sysconf(2))
