I see: A single archive can span multiple files. The pax utility shall determine, in an implementation-defined manner, what file to read or write as the next file.

"shall" means a requirement, not a suggestion. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
