-.SH DESCRIPTION
-The file(s) are moved (or copied if the \fB-c\fP option is specified)
-to the target file or directory.  If the destination is a directory, then

-If the target file already exists, it is overwritten.
-.PP
-The mode is set to 755; the \fB-m\fP option may be used to specify
-an alternate mode.
-.PP
-The \fB-o\fP and \fB-g\fP options may be used to specify an owner
-and/or group, respectively.
-.PP
-The \fB-s\fP option causes the file to be stripped.  It is an error
-to attempt to strip a file not in the \fIa.out\fP format, but not to
-attempt to strip a file that has already been stripped.
-.PP
-\fIInstall\fP refuses to move a file onto itself.

-Installing ``/dev/null'' creates an empty file.
