  1. Michael Riepe (riepe@ifwsn4.ifw.uni-hannover.de) has send me a patch
  2. to support sparse files with tar on Linux boxes.
  3.  
  4. I did'nt have any experience with it and unfortunately dds2tar doesn't support
  5. sparse files. But if you are familar with patching tar, you may decide
  6. to include this patch also.
  7.  
  8. Please send comments on that patch to Michael. J"org.
