FYI.
example of tar to list , found it from one of my friends
=> listing archive.
/usr/local/gnu/bin/tar -z --list --file=/juno/defunct/users/lsundar.tar.gz
I usually just use "tar -tf filename.tar" which gives you a list of all files in a tarball. If it's a big tarball and I'm looking for more than one file I'll redirect to a text file and then search from within vi or grep it.
The -tf is a few keystrokes shorter at least.
