Oh please. First off out of four replies *no one* has provided the obvious answer (and three seem questionable at best), and second, last time I looked tar did not handle PKZip compression. tar -z will use gzip, which is a very different file format and compression algorithm. "-j" will use bzip2, still very different. What's wrong with the infozip utilities "zip" and "unzip"? -- Michael Kjörling, [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://michael.kjorling.com/ * ASCII Ribbon Campaign: Against HTML Mail, Proprietary Attachments * * .....
