NAME
       install - install binaries

SYNOPSIS
       install [ -c ] [ -m mode ] [ -o owner ] [ -g group ] [ -s ] binary des‐
       tination

DESCRIPTION
       _B_i_n_a_r_y is moved (or copied if -c is specified) to _d_e_s_t_i_n_a_t_i_o_n.  If _d_e_s_‐
       _t_i_n_a_t_i_o_n  already exists, it is removed before _b_i_n_a_r_y is moved.  If the
       destination is a directory then _b_i_n_a_r_y is moved  into  the  _d_e_s_t_i_n_a_t_i_o_n
       directory with its original file-name.

       The  mode for _D_e_s_t_i_n_a_t_i_o_n is set to 755; the -m _m_o_d_e option may be used
       to specify a different mode.

       _D_e_s_t_i_n_a_t_i_o_n is changed to owner root; the -o _o_w_n_e_r option may  be  used
       to specify a different owner.

       _D_e_s_t_i_n_a_t_i_o_n  is changed to group staff; the -g _g_r_o_u_p option may be used
       to specify a different group.

       If the -s option is  specified  the  binary  is  stripped  after  being
       installed.

       _I_n_s_t_a_l_l refuses to move a file onto itself.
