It annoys me that tar doesn't have a proper man page. You can find out how to use it by running tar --help|less Coreutils contails a perl script called help2man that can convert the output of <command> --help into a useful man page. I install it into bin install -m755 ~/coreutils-7.6/man/help2man /usr/bin and then use it to generate a man page for tar help2man -o /usr/share/man/man1/tar.1 tar Andy -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
