# natool: a wrapper script to patool to list, extract and create archives
#
# usage: natool [-a] [-l] [-x] [archive] [file/dir]
#
# Examples:
# - create archive : natool -a archive.7z archive_dir
# - list archive   : natool -l archive.7z
# - extract archive: natool -x archive.7z
#
# Brief:
# natool is written to integrate patool (instead of the default atool) with nnn
# A copies of this file should be dropped somewhere in $PATH as atool
