C 5 install - install binaries install [ -c ] [ -m mode ] [ -o owner ] [ -g group ] [ -s ] file1 file2; or file1 ... fileN directory The file(s) are moved (or copied if the -c option is specified) to the target file or directory. If the destination is a directory, then the file is moved into directory with its original file-name. If the target file already exists, it is overwritten.

The mode is set to 755; the -m option may be used to specify an alternate mode.

The -o and -g options may be used to specify an alternate owner and/or group, respectively.

The -s option causes the file to be stripped. It is an error to attempt to strip a file not in the a.out format, but not to attempt to strip a file that has already been stripped.

Install refuses to move a file onto itself.

Upon successful completion a value of 0 is returned. Otherwise, a value of 1 is returned. chgrp(1), chmod(1), cp(1), mv(1), strip(1), a.out(5), chown(8)
