To understand how to run tar
in the three operating modes listed
previously, you also need to understand how to use two of the options to
tar
: --file (which takes an archive file as an argument)
and --verbose. (You are usually not required to specify
either of these options when you run tar
, but they can be very
useful in making things more clear and helping you avoid errors.)
