The first tar line is invormative. The rest should be self- explaining, no?

The script still creates the compression file, but when I try to display the file size and file name with the stat command I get more info than I want, all I need to display is the file size and name after the echo command "The size of file1.tgz is:"

That will be an empty file - not empty, but just binary zeroes. How about man stat?
