this version of tar has originally been Simmule Turners tar for OS-9/6809.
I've adapted it to OS-9/68k and added some new features.
I did this in a manner that it still should be able to be compiled on a
6809 system (but i haven't been able to test it).
new features :
it's now possible to extract a single file from an archive
all missing directories are now automatically created
extraction of entire directories in now possible
directories from UNIX-written archives are now correctly created
examples:
tar x archive test/abc extract file 'test/abc' from archive
directory 'test' is automatically created
tar x archive test extracts entire directory 'test'
please send more ideas or bug reports to me :

Fixes by blarson@usc.edu:
Create writable directories, even if the files in them are read only.
Convert - to _ when creating files.
Some code cleanup.
