I'm trying to use the tar command in a BASH shell and want to exclude files. If I use this command: tar --exclude=._* -cvfj oldemail.tbz bzip2
tar creates an archive named j I have tried other variations of the --exclude= command with errors made in naming or creation of the tar file. TIA. -- Best Regards, Keith [email protected] http://home.comcast.net/~kilowattradio/ _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
