Hi all,
I'm wondering if there's any way to get tar to stop immediately after
the extraction of a file on compressed tar files. eg: I pack a big tgz
with the file index.txt first so that when I run "tar xf file.tgz
--occurrence index.txt" it extracts "index.txt" but proceeds reading the
file. I wish tar stopped after extracting the intended file.
I know it works for non-compressed tar archives....
Any way of achieving this with compressed files... maybe a patch lying
around the net!?
My distribution is slackware.
Thanks in advance,
Mauricio
