Shar question

[Beech Rintoul]

I'm trying to learn how to use shar. I've read the manual.

If I pass a directory to shar:

shar foo > foo.shar

Results in a shar file. Problem is that when I unpack it I just end up with an 
empty directory. I probably need to pass it a flag or something, but I'm not 
sure which one to use.

How do I make a shar file out of a directory and ALL it's contents.

TIA

Beech
