-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 First of all, you should "man tar". Then, i can help you out a bit. To uncompress some .tar files, just use: tar -xf file.tar To uncompress some .tar.gz or .tgz files, use: tar -zxf file.tar.gz(.tgz) To compress into .tar files, use: tar -cf newfile.tar [files-or-directory] To compress into .tar.gz files, use: tar -zcf newfile.tar.gz [files-or-directory] Just change this for your purpose. By the way, this is a question that might be directed to questions@ not to docs@. Have a nice day.
