+.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
+.LP
|
|
+This manual page documents the GNU version of
|
|
+.B tar
|
|
+, an archiving program designed to store and extract files from
|
|
+an archive file known as a
|
|
+.IR tarfile.
|
|
+A
|
|
+.IR tarfile
|
|
+may be made on a tape drive, however, it is also common
|
|
+to write a
|
|
+.IR tarfile
|
|
+to a normal file.
|
|
+The first argument to
|
|
+.B tar
|
|
+must be one of the options:
|
|
+.BR Acdrtux ,
|
|
+followed by any optional functions.
|
|
+The final arguments to
|
|
+.B tar
|
|
+are the names of the files or directories which should be archived. The use
|
|
+of a directory name always implies that the subdirectories below should be
|
|
+included in the archive.
