Readers,

 The command 'tar' is used to update a tar file stored on a portable
 hard disk drive, of files stored on a local hard disk:

 tar -uvf /path/to/portable/harddisk/ *

 In the command terminal, the list of files added to the tar file is
 shown. In future, can the redirect output command be applied, e.g.:

 tar -uvf /path/to/portable/harddisk/ * >
 ~/tmp/list/of/files/added/to/harddisk.txt

 Thanks in advance.
