Another question is search for a file in a tar.gz archive. Now I do it in a heavy way in two steps, first make a file I can search in and then make the search:
less y.tar.gz | cat > readfile grep -n "x.doc" readfile
.......and I get the file with full path.
I believe there is a command for searching directly for a file and path in a tar.gz archive, but wich one is it?
$ tar ztf y.tar.gz | grep x.doc
.../Ed
Ahhh.... You probably really want...
$ tar ztf y.tar.gz | grep x\\.doc
