If -F is used when creating an archive, can teh script simply echo "n filenamex.tar.bz2" where x is an incremental number?  I thought I had read somewhere that n is not supported with a script.  Also, after the scripts exits, will tar take the output and use it as if it were typed?  I cannot find much about the usage of -F in the man pages or internet.

Thank you for any help,
Jim
