Howdy, dashielljt:
I was thinking along the same lines. I am only familiar
with the last option being 'f'. Yet I noticed that the 'b'
command needs an operator too. Perhaps the operators are
appended in the same order they are requested by the options.
'f' filename.ext or /dev/*
'b' block size
'k' ?
i.e.
tar cvfbk /dev/fd0 1440 4 /
\\\
\\k = 4
\b = 1440
f = /dev/fd0
?
