NAME

bsdinstall - install binaries  

SYNOPSIS

bsdinstall [ -c ] [ -m mode ] [ -o owner ] [ -g group ] [ -s ] binary destination  

DESCRIPTION

Binary is moved (or copied if -c is specified) to destination. If destination already exists, it is removed before binary is moved. If the destination is a directory then binary is moved into the destination directory with its original file-name.

The mode for Destination is set to 755; the -m mode option may be used to specify a different mode.

Destination is changed to owner root; the -o owner option may be used to specify a different owner.

Destination is changed to group staff; the -g group option may be used to specify a different group.

If the -s option is specified the binary is stripped after being installed.

Install refuses to move a file onto itself.
