Hi,
I found this little mistake on the following example, shown on this page of the manual:
http://www.gnu.org/software/tar/manual/html_section/tar_15.html#SEC23


$ tar cfv archive /etc/mail
tar: Removing leading `/' from member names
/etc/mail/
/etc/mail/sendmail.cf
/etc/mail/aliases
$ tar tf archive
etc/mail/
etc/mail/sendmail.cf
etc/mail/aliases

In the first line, the options 'f' and 'v' are inverted, which would cause the creation of a 'v.tar' archive.
Then, the following list command would have lead to a different result.
That's all folks.
Many thanks, for your efforts and great job,
Piero.


P.S.: If you say that the mistake was done on purpouse to see if I was payng the right attention...
I WOUN'T BELIEVE IT! :-) :-)
