Microsoft (R) Cabinet Tool - Version 1.00.0601 (03/18/97)
Copyright (c) Microsoft Corp 1996-1997. All rights reserved.

Usage: CABARC [options] command cabfile [@list] [files] [dest_dir]

Commands:
L List contents of cabinet (e.g. cabarc l test.cab)
N Create new cabinet (e.g. cabarc n test.cab *.c app.mak *.h)
X Extract file(s) from cabinet (e.g. cabarc x test.cab foo*.c)

Options:
-c Confirm files to be operated on
-o When extracting, overwrite without asking for confirmation
-m Set compression type [LZX:<15..21>|MSZIP|NONE], (default is MSZIP)
-p Preserve path names (absolute paths not allowed)
-P Strip specified prefix from files when added
-r Recurse into subdirectories when adding files (see -p also)
-s Reserve space in cabinet for signing (e.g. -s 6144 reserves 6K bytes)
-i Set cabinet set ID when creating cabinets (default is 0)

Notes
-----
When creating a cabinet, the plus sign (+) may be used as a filename
to force a folder boundary; e.g. cabarc n test.cab *.c test.h + *.bmp

When extracting files to disk, the <dest_dir>, if provided, must end in
a backslash; e.g. cabarc x test.cab bar*.cpp *.h d:\test\

The -P (strip prefix) option can be used to strip out path information
e.g. cabarc -r -p -P myproj\ a test.cab myproj\balloon\*.*
The -P option can be used multiple times to strip out multiple paths
