mxtar \- Wrapper for using GNU tar directly from a floppy disk

.SH SYNOPSIS

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
.B mxtar
|
||
|
|
let you use GNU \fBtar\fR(1) on a floppy disk without mounting it using
|
||
|
|
\fBmtools\fR(1).
|
||
|
|
It is not strictly necessary on Debian GNU/Linux, because the GNU
|
||
|
|
\fBtar\fR(1) program provides the same capability after copying the
|
||
|
|
file locally with
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.B mcopy
|
||
|
|
.I file
|
||
|
|
.I destination
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
but this utility is provided in the mtools package for other platforms and
|
||
|
|
is retained here for completeness.
