tar archive with including specific patern files
Hi,
I need to create recursive tar archive, while I put there only files of type a*.txt. Without file filtering the command is: tar cfzf test.tar.gz test_tar/ How I include the switch for including only files with pattern a*.txt ? Thanks a lot! |

You could use find as follows... Code:
tar cf file.tar `find . -print -name \*.txt` or append to the tar file as follows Code:
find . -print -name "*.txt" | while read N
do
tar rf file.tar $N
done
and change the 'find' to look for the type of files you want. |
