Could "star", be used as a replacement for Solaris tar program without causing *any* incompatibilities?

I certainly find it much faster then GNU tar, and faster than Solaris tar. -- Shawn Walker, Software and Systems Analyst [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://binarycrusader.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
