-
- SYNOPSIS

- install [options] [-s] [--strip] source... directory

-
- DESCRIPTION
- This manual page documents the GNU version of install.
- install copies files and sets their permission modes and, if
- possible, their owner and group. Used similarly to cp; typ-
- ically used in Makefiles to copy programs into their desti-
- nation directories. It can also be used to create the des-
- tination directories and any leading directories, and to set
- the final directory's modes. It refuses to copy files onto
- themselves.
-
- OPTIONS
- -_c Ignored; for compatibility with old Unix versions of
- install.
-
- -_d, --_d_i_r_e_c_t_o_r_y
- Create each given directory and its leading direc-
- tories, if they do not already exist. Set the owner,
- group and mode as given on the command line or to the
- defaults. Also gives any leading directories that are
- created those attributes. This is different from the
- SunOS 4.x _i_n_s_t_a_l_l, which gives directories that it
- creates the default attributes.
-
- -_g, --_g_r_o_u_p _g_r_o_u_p
- Set the group ownership of the installed file or direc-
- tory to the group ID of _g_r_o_u_p (default is process's
- current group). _g_r_o_u_p may also be a numeric group ID.
-
- -_m, --_m_o_d_e _m_o_d_e
- Set the permission mode for the installed file or
- directory to _m_o_d_e, which can be either an octal number,
- or a symbolic mode as in chmod, with 0 as the point of
- departure. The default mode is 0755.
-
- -_o, --_o_w_n_e_r _o_w_n_e_r
- If run as root, set the ownership of the installed file
- to the user ID of _o_w_n_e_r (default is root). _o_w_n_e_r may
- also be a numeric user ID.
-
- -_s, --_s_t_r_i_p
- Strip the symbol tables from installed programs.

- The long-named options can be introduced with `+' as well as
- `--', for compatibility with previous releases. Eventually
- support for `+' will be removed, because it is incompatible
- with the POSIX.2 standard.
