DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Tar is a POSIX-compatible archiver, except that it does not use tape.
|
|
It's primary advantage over ar is that the tar format is somewhat more
|
|
standardized than the ar format, making it theoretically possible to
|
|
transport MINIX files to another computer, but do not bet on it. If the
|
|
target machine runs MS-DOS , try doswrite .
