GNU Info (tar.info)Two Frequent OptionsTwo Frequently Used Options =========================== To understand how to run `tar' in the three operating modes listed previously, you also need to understand how to use two of the options to `tar': `--file' (which takes an archive file as an argument) and `--verbose'. (You are usually not _required_ to specify either of these options when you run `tar', but they can be very useful in making things more clear and helping you avoid errors.) automatically generated by info2www version 1.2.2.9 |
