It manages "archives" (collections of files), such as source code files for a software project. It tracks the history of each file, along with change comments, version tags, forks and branches, etc. It can store files and documents of any kind, but the largest benefits are with text files, rather than binary files. The home page is at http://www.nongnu.org/arx/ ArX is documented fully in the manual, which should be included with the program. The manual is also available from the ArX home page. .SH OPTIONS A brief summary of the most important options is included below.
