Note that this is _NOT_ star!

This is a program that needs to be renamed as somebody ignored _much_ 
older ritghts of star. Star started to use it's current name "star"
in 1985. GNU tar was created in PD-TAR/SUG-TAR in 1989 and PD-TAR/SUG-TAR
was created in 1986.


If you are responsible for the programs _you_ mentioned, make sure to find a 
better name for the programs you call "star" and "sfind" as soon as possible.
