| Pack is a variant of the Plan 9 ar tool. The original is documented at |
| |
| http://plan9.bell-labs.com/magic/man2html/1/ar |
| |
| It adds a special Go-specific section __.PKGDEF that collects all the |
| Go type information from the files in the archive; that section is |
| used by the compiler when importing the package during compilation. |
| |
| Usage: go tool pack [uvnbailogS][mrxtdpq][P prefix] archive files ... |
| |
| The new option 'g' causes pack to maintain the __.PKGDEF section |
| as files are added to the archive. |
| |
| The new option 'S' forces pack to mark the archive as safe. |
| |
| The new option 'P' causes pack to remove the given prefix |
| from file names in the line number information in object files |
| that are already stored in or added to the archive. |
