NAME

       elfrc -- a resource compiler for ELF systems

SYNOPSIS

       elfrc [-o filename]  [-h filename]  [-v ]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the elfrc command.

       This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

       elfrc  is  a  program which can turn arbitrary files into ELF object files which can then be linked into your program directly and accessed
       via simple, user-defined symbol names.

       For instance, it's possible to embed even huge (16MB+) files directly into the executable and then access the data in constant time without
       making the compiler or linker eat loads of memory.

OPTIONS

       Here's what the arguments do:

       -o filename
		 Store resulting ELF object in filename. If not given, no ELF object will be generated.

       -h filename
		 Store C header file which can be used to access the resource data in filename. If not given, no header file will be generated.

       -v	 Be a little verbose about what's going on.

       In  any	case,  the  most  important argument is resfile - the path to a resource file which can be parsed by elfrc. If no resource file is
       given, or if "-" (a dash) is given, the resources will be read from the standard input.

       A resource file is just a plain text file, each line in the file describing a resource to be compiled into the ELF  output.  Each  line	is
       expected  to  three fields, separated by tab characters: the type of the resource (can be either 'binary' or 'text'), the symbol name (this
       should be a valid C identifier) and the path to the file to be compiled in.

       cm is a program that manages directory trees.  The components of a directory tree are specified by a recipe (also known as a config).

       A recipe can specify that the directories components should be retrieved via Arch, CVS, HTTP or FTP as appropriate.
