EXAMPLES
tar -xvvf foo.tar
extract foo.tar
I'd instead say "extract all the files in the archive file foo.tar
into the current directory" [<--usually]
tar -xvvzf foo.tar.gz
extract gzipped foo.tar.gz
I'd instead say "Do the same, but with an archive file that has been gzipped."
tar -cvvf foo.tar foo/
tar contents of folder foo in foo.tar
I'd instead say "copy the contents of the directory foo into an
archive called foo.tar."
