      Description

        jar --help contains examples like
        "jar --create --file classes.jar Foo.class Bar.class"

        but it unclear what stdout can be used here
        jar --create Foo.class Bar.class > classes.jar

        or jar --list < classes.jar

        Also there is no information about loading options from file. jar --create @argfile
