The order doesn't matter. Play scrabble if you want. You can also explode them into -v -c -f.

Doesn't work.Still get a bunch of extra folders in my finished TAR. And -vcf made the Terminal explode.
Tell me exactly what you typed, word for word, letter for letter, keystroke for keystroke. I don't think -vcf had anything to do with it, you might have accidentally dumped data into the terminal.
