Hey, you bright guys out there... I am writing a short backup script with the output being *.tar.gz.
I have read in the man pages that concatenating the files before passing thru gzip improves the compression. I have tried cat, however, it seems to only concatenate files, not directories. If I have a directory called backup/, how do I cat all the sub-directories and files inside it prior to passing thru gzip? If anyone knows an easier way to compress files, pls let me know:-) Regards, georgen -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
