This is a public domain version of the tar program for MsDos. It was
compiled from the release distributed on comp.sources.unix. Read
tar.doc for full details. You can get the source by sending this
command to bitftp.pucc.bitnet:
ftp 128.252.135.4 uuencode
user anonymous
cd usenet/comp.sources.unix/volume12/pdtar
get part01.Z
get part02.Z
get part03.Z
quit
-David Camp-
For an MS-DOS version of a 16-bit compress/uncompress utility,
we suggest COMP410E.ARC, available from SIMTEL20's PD:<MSDOS.SQ-USQ>
archive. This compress is basically compatible with the Unix 16-bit
compress utility, but deals more appropriately with the MS-DOS filename
constraint (8-character name, 3-character type): The compressed file
created by compress has its filename changed to "filename.tyZ" rather
than the usual Unix convention "filename.typ.Z".
