[comp.os.minix] un tar utility wanted

u5569462@ucsvc.unimelb.edu.au (DAVID CLUNIE) (04/04/89)

I am trying to get hold of a tar utility for minix or msdos that can un tar
a file that I have. Failing that does anyone know the tar file format ?

You might try bringing up the PDtar utility package.  It'll give tar and
untar capability in 'old' tar format and ANSI format.  Very neat and in the
archives.
