+ <longdescription>
+ This library is for working with .tar@ archive files. It
+ can read and write a range of common variations of archive
+ format including V7, USTAR, POSIX and GNU formats. It provides
+ support for packing and unpacking portable archives. This
+ makes it suitable for distribution but not backup because
+ details like file ownership and exact permissions are not
+ preserved.
