I made a couple of sloppy typos in the instructions. I will repeat them below with the typos corrected. Please try again. It helps to have an overview of what is going on and to have an understanding of tar and how jt provides similar facilities. That is 'c' creates, 'x' extracts, and 't' tests (displays contents of jt file).
Please try again and let me know how it goes. *** expanded instructions with typos corrected Use jt to transfer a folder of files. jt is similar to tar. It creates a single file with the info necessary to recreate a folder.
