I think you should compute and sum the sizes of the tar files themselves. Suppose you readdir(), make a list of files that look relevant, and stat() each one. total_size is the sum of the file sizes. Then you work your way through the list of files and read each one. done_size is the total size of all files you've read completely plus the number of bytes you've read from the current file so far. -- Robert Haas EDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com
