I'm talking about GNU tar which is used with FeeBSD. From man page:
-T file
--files-from file Get names of files to extract or create from
file, one per line.
-t
--list List the contents of an archive; if filename arguments are
given, only those files are listed, otherwise the entire
table of contents is listed.
I wish _ADD_ files with specified names to archive and not _SHOW_ content of
archive :-)
%uname -a
