etc.. easy to find.. like tar and cpio (and to some extent zip), there is
no "the" ar format. susv3 has to say this about the format:
If an archive file consists entirely of printable files, the entire
archive file is printable. When ar creates an archive file, it creates
administrative information in a format that is portable across all
machines.
Yupp, that's all. Another good resource apart from manpages and google is
the binutils source, which contains a lot of real-world info.
