From man page: -T file --files-from file Get names of files to extract or create from file, one per line. -t --list List the contents of an archive; if filename arguments are given, only those files are listed, otherwise the entire table of contents is listed. I wish _ADD_ files with specified names to archive and not _SHOW_ content of archive :-) %uname -a FreeBSD demon.rainbow 4.1-STABLE FreeBSD 4.1-STABLE #0: Sun Sep 10 19:56:47 MSD 2000 root@demon.rainbow:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/DEMON i386 %tar --version GNU tar version 1.11.2 -- Igor Roboul, Unix System Administrator & Programmer @ sanatorium "Raduga", Sochi, Russia http://www.brainbench.com/transcript.jsp?pid=304744 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
