It's not that an option becomes "bad" just because it's not carved into |
18 |
the POSIX standard. What's important, I guess, is that tar is |
19 |
POSIX-compliant, so that if you want, you can build POSIX-compliant |
20 |
scripts etc. , but I can't see how non-POSIX but handy extensions could |
21 |
be bad. Maybe it's me not seeing the problem. Maybe the POSIX standard |
22 |
could just be extended as well. :) |
