     13.SH DESCRIPTION
     14.LP
     15This manual page documents the GNU version of
     16.B tar
     17, an archiving program designed to store and extract files from
     18an archive file known as a
     19.IR tarfile.
     20A
     21.IR tarfile
     22may be made on a tape drive, however, it is also common
     23to write a
     24.IR tarfile
     25to a normal file.
     26The first argument to
     27.B tar
     28must be one of the options:
     29.BR Acdrtux ,
     30followed by any optional functions.
     31The final arguments to
     32.B tar
     33are the names of the files or directories which should be archived. The use
     34of a directory name always implies that the subdirectories below should be
     35included in the archive.

     354.SH ENVIRONMENT
     355The behavior of tar is controlled by the following environment variables,
     356among others:
     357.TP
     358.B TAPE
     359Device or file to use for the archive if \fB--file\fR is not specified.
     360If this environment variable is unset, use stdin or stdout instead.
     361.TP
     362.B TAR_OPTIONS
     363Options to prepend to those specified on the command line, separated by
     364whitespace.  Embedded backslashes may be used to escape whitespace or
     365backslashes within an option.
     366.LP
     367In addition, the value of the blocking factor is made available to info
     368and checkpoint scripts via environment variable
     369.B TAR_BLOCKING_FACTOR.
     370.SH BUGS
     371.LP
     372The GNU folks, in general, abhor man pages and create info documents instead.
     373The maintainer of \fBtar\fR falls into this category.  Thus, this man page may
     374not be complete nor current, and it is included in the Cross-LFS Build
     375because man is a great tool :).  This man page was taken from Debian
     376Linux and has since been lovingly updated here.

     384This man page was created for the Cross LFS Build.  It does not describe
     385all of the functionality of tar, and it is often out of date.  Patches to
     386improve the coverage and/or accuracy of this man page are appreciated, and
     387should be filed as tickets in bug reporting system for Cross-LFS and
     388not submitted to the GNU tar maintainers. The URL for the Cross-LFS bug
     389reporting system is at
