  11.                                | Cobol copybook, or a debug script file. It
  12.                                | can be used to embed binary data within a

  15. EXTAR.ZIP       10649  01-22-96  On Unix machines, probably the most common
  16.                                | way of bundling a set of files (for purposes
  17.                                | of mailing or whatever) is to put them into
  18.                                | a TAR file, i.e., a Tape ARchive,
  19.                                | conventionally recognizable by a name ending
  20.                                | in .tar. (These TAR files are then usually
  21.                                | compressed, recognizable by a file name
  22.                                | ending in .tar.Z. But this is an entirely

  28.                                | patch them together before decoding them.
  29.                                | FUUD was born out of a need to process
  30.                                | ftpmail files and Usenet binaries that
  31.                                | arrive in parts While it does this very

  35.                                | designed to be a replacement for 'compress'.
  36.                                | Its main advantages over compress are much
  37.                                | better compression and freedom from patented
  38.                                | algorithms.  The GNU Project uses it as the
