From: cruff@handies.ucar.edu (Craig Ruff)
Subject: Tar 3.0 binary
This is version 3.0 of tar for the Macintosh. This version is now
7.0-compatible. Besides some bug fixes, there are new features:
* Tar will now create and use a preferences file.
Tar will thus remember any options you have selected.
* Tar will now extract and convert MS-DOS style line
endings (CR/LF) to Macintosh sytle (CR).
* Tar will now read/write floppy disks, allowing exchange
of tar archives with Unix systems with a floppy.
The source is also available in a separate file.
