Glenn, does tar.sh support filenames, option arguments or patterns
with spaces? I've doubts; looking at the code, for example this line
($owner is a bad example option but a simple example to explain the
trouble):
options+=" --owner $owner"
Isn't it better to declare options as an array and replace the
statement above with:
options+=( "--owner" )
options+=( "$owner" )
and call pax as
pax $mode "${options[@]}" "$file" $xstring "$@"
This allows options with special character like spaces and avoids the
eval statement. This leaves $xstring, for which I'm not sure how to
handle it.
