A web application archive (WAR) file is just a JAR file with a particular
directory structure (as described in the Servlet Specification at
<http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/download.html>). So, you can use the
"jar" utility.
For the Tomcat distribution in particular, the WAR files were created with the
help of the Ant build tool (<http://jakarta.apache.org/ant>). You can learn
about using Ant to help you create web applications by reading the Application
Developer's Guide that is included with Tomcat 3.2.1 -- simply point your
browser at file "doc/appdev/index.html" in the Tomcat distribution.
