example from the man page: tar -xjf foo.tar.bz2 -C bar/ this will extract (x) and unbzip (j) the file (f) foo.tar.bz2 into the directory (C) bar/ cheers, T. -- ================================================================== Thomas Van Parys Tel:+32 (0)9 331 36 95 fax:+32 (0)9 3313809 VIB Department of Plant Systems Biology, Ghent University Technologiepark 927, 9052 Gent, BELGIUM thomas.vanparys@psb.ugent.be http://bioinformatics.psb.ugent.be ==================================================================
alrighty, thx thpar/napoc, that already shed some light in the darkness .... but now I'll raise the stacks: how can i use the -C option to tar all files from a certain dir? because apparently it only works when using full file names (does not accept *.png) L. Thomas Van Parys wrote:

Not sure if you really need the -C option. tar -czvf mytar.tar.gz somedir/*png This creates a tar.gz file with all png-files in somedir T.

indeed it does... but the prob is that it also includes the path (structure). but i kinda solved it already myself :-[ (does this means I earned myself a beer?) L. Thomas Van Parys wrote:

*--include* /pattern/ (*-W* *include*=/pattern/) Process only files or directories that match the specified pat- tern. Note that exclusions specified with *--exclude* take prece- dence over inclusions. If no inclusions are explicitly speci- fied, all entries are processed by default. The *--include* option is especially useful when filtering archives. For example, the command *tar* *-c* *-f* /new.tar/ *--include='*foo*'* *@*/old.tgz/ creates a new archive /new.tar/ containing only the entries from /old.tgz/ containing the string `foo'. lieven sterck wrote:
