dymaxion@iisat.UUCP (Dymaxion Research) (08/22/88)

If someone out there has TAR for MS-DOS, I would greatly appreciate it if
you could send me a copy.  Please confirm with me before sending.

Thanks,

Ben Armstrong.

I would like too have that too. My DOSCP utilities are dreadfully
slow. Anyone? Mail first.

John Gilmore's PDTAR will work under MS-DOS.  I'd feel confident about
taring with files, but g_d only knows about doing it with disks and tapes
on a pc.  PDTAR can be found in the comp.sources archives, or I guess I
could email it to a few people.

Seems to me that, a few months back, I saw references to a version of tar,*RO
running on MS-DOS, which could read Xenix tar floppies.  Of course, I didn't
need it then, and now I do.  Can anyone point me to the location of this
program, if it exists?  Anon uucp preferred.

Please reply by email.  Anyone else interested, please write and I'll forward
what I learn.  Thanks to everyone in advance.
