At my university we run fluid dynamic simulations. These simulations create many small files (30,000) per hour. Their size is very small (20k to 200k). Instead of having this on the filesystem since it take up inode space, I would like to tar them per day into one tar file. I would then like an interface similar to zsh/ksh to "cd tar.file" and use it as a typeical shell. Do tools like that exist? That would be very benefical for us and our system admin does not have to yell at us. Any thoughts or ideas?
