DETAZ VERSION 0.9
This program requires Mint to run. If mint is not installed it
will quit quickly doing nothing but writing a message.
If Mint is installed it pipes gzip to tar decompressing the compressed
[or gzipped] tar file and extracting the files in the tar file WITHOUT
creating a massive temp. file.
included are:
read.me this file
detaz.c source code for detaz.ttp
execle.c source code to my execle that uses ARGV spec for args
and emulated execle() via Pexec(200,....)
detaz.ttp the executable
makefile the makefile to create detaz.ttp
USAGE [-l] detaz infile
if -l is present a listing of the tar file will be produced.
otherwise, the files will be extracted from the tar file.
infile is the name of the compressed file to extract or list.
Uses PATH environment var to search for gzip.ttp and tar.ttp
(not included) but neccesary for the program to work!
WARNING - this program does not grok unix names to atari 8.3 format.
some files that do not conform to 8.3 filename format may be over-
written by tar when a conflict of filenames occurs!!!
