ppumove - The FPC Pascal unit mover.

ppumove collects one or several Free Pascal unit files and archives them in a static or shared library.

       ppumove - The FPC Pascal unit mover.

ppumove has several options, which are case sensitive:

       -b     This option tells ppumove to write a shell script (a batch file on DOS) that performs  the  needed
              calls  to  ar and ld. The script will be called pmove, with an extension of .sh on Linux, and .bat
              on DOS. You can then call this script manually afterwards.

       -dpath
              This option tells ppumove where to generate the new unit files.  By  default,  this  is  the  same
              directory as where the files are found.  If you specify as the output extension the same extension
              as the units you want to move, not specifying the destination directory may cause problems.

       -eext This option sets the extension of the new unit files to ext. By default .ppl is used. However, you
              can  specify  .ppu  as  the  extension.  If you do, be sure to use also the -d switch, or you will
              overwrite the old units. Note however, that the compiler will only look for  extensions  .ppu  and
              .ppl when looking for units.

       -h     Shows a short help screen.

       -ofile
              This  option  allows  you  to  specify the name of the library to be generated.  You must use this
              option if you specify more than one unit on the command-line. If you specified only  one  unit  on
              the  command-line,  the  generated library will have the unit name, with lib prepended (on Linux).
              You do not need to specify the lib part, this will be prepended automatically if needed.

       -q     Tells ppumove to operate quietly.

       -s     Tells ppumove to generate a static library. By default, a shared library is generated  (except  on
              DOS).

       -w     Tells ppumove it should use the windows linker and archiver. Do not use this option on Linux.

ppc386(1) ppudep(1) ppudump(1)

Free Pascal                                        9 June 1999                                        ppumove(1)

ppumove [-sqbhw] [-o File] [-d path] [-e extension] files...

       You  can  invoke  ppumove  with as the only required argument the name of the unit from which you want to
       make an archive. Specifying multiple files is also possible, they will be put in the same archive.
