179+.SH DESCRIPTION
180+.LP
181+This manual page documents the GNU version of
182+.B tar
183+, an archiving program designed to store and extract files from
184+an archive file known as a
185+.IR tarfile.
186+A
187+.IR tarfile
188+may be made on a tape drive, however, it is also common
189+to write a
190+.IR tarfile
191+to a normal file.
192+The first argument to
193+.B tar
194+must be one of the options:
195+.BR Acdrtux ,
196+followed by any optional functions.
197+The final arguments to
198+.B tar
199+are the names of the files or directories which should be archived. The use
200+of a directory name always implies that the subdirectories below should be
201+included in the archive.
202+.SH EXAMPLES
203+.TP
204+.B tar \-xvvf foo.tar
205+extract foo.tar
206+.TP
207+.B tar \-xvvzf foo.tar.gz
208+extract gzipped foo.tar.gz
209+.TP
210+.B tar \-cvvf foo.tar foo/
211+tar contents of folder foo in foo.tar
212+.SH "FUNCTION LETTERS"
213+.TP
214+.B One of the following options must be used:

329+instead of \-j so that both older and newer tar versions
330+will work.
331+.TP

519+specify drive and density
520+.SH ENVIRONMENT
521+The behavior of tar is controlled by the following environment variables,
522+among others:
523+.TP
524+.B TAPE
525+Device or file to use for the archive if \fB--file\fR is not specified.
526+If this environment variable is unset, use stdin or stdout instead.
527+.TP
528+.B TAR_OPTIONS
529+Options to prepend to those specified on the command line, separated by
530+whitespace. Embedded backslashes may be used to escape whitespace or
531+backslashes within an option.
532+.LP
533+In addition, the value of the blocking factor is made available to info
534+and checkpoint scripts via environment variable
535+.B TAR_BLOCKING_FACTOR.
536+.SH BUGS
537+.LP
538+The GNU folks, in general, abhor man pages and create info documents instead.
539+The maintainer of \fBtar\fR falls into this category. Thus, this man page may
540+not be complete nor current, and it is included in the Cross-LFS Build
541+because man is a great tool :). This man page was taken from Debian
542+Linux and has since been lovingly updated here.

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551+all of the functionality of tar, and it is often out of date.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