# kitsend(1)

sends distribution kits

## NAME

kitsend - sends distribution kits

## SYNOPSIS

**kitsend** \[ **-hV** \] \[ *kits* \] *recipients*

## DESCRIPTION

*Kitsend* sends distribution kits made by *makedist* to some recipients specified on the command line. If you do not specify any kit list, then all the kits are sent. Otherwise, only the specified kits will be (re)sent.

A kit list may include ranges, *1-10* specifying kits 1 through 10, and *5-* meaning kits 5 up to the last one. You may also specify kit numbers by separating them with commas or spaces, and even mix with ranges, such as: *1 3 5-7 9*.

The **-h** switch will print out the usage and **-V** will print the version number.
