BF_TAR(1)		   Bogofilter Reference Manual		       BF_TAR(1)

NAME
     bf_tar - shell script to write a tar file of a bogofilter directory to std-
     out

SYNOPSIS
     bf_tar [-r] [-R] bogofilter_directory

DESCRIPTION
     bf_tar  bundles  a bogofilter working directory in tar format and copies it
     to standard output (your console, or where you redirect  it,  see	EXAMPLES
     below).

OPTIONS
     The  -r option causes bf_tar to remove inactive log files after the archive
     has been written successfully. The default is to leave log files.

     The -R option causes bf_tar to remove inactive log files before the archive
     is written. This may reduce chances that the resulting archive is	recover-
     able  should  it become damaged. The archive may be smaller though. The de-
     fault is to leave log files.

EXIT STATUS
     The script exits with status code 0 if everything went well, and nonzero if
     it encountered trouble.

EXAMPLES
     *	 bf_tar ~/.bogofilter > outfile.tar

	 Writes a standard .tar file containing the essential files from  ~/.bo-
	 gofilter to outfile.tar.

     *	 bf_tar ~/.bogofilter | gzip -9 -c > outfile.tar.gz

	 Writes  a  gzipped  .tar.gz  file  containing	the essential files from
	 ~/.bogofilter to outfile.tar.gz.

     *	 bf_tar `pwd`/mydirectory > outfile.tar

	 Prepend $(pwd)/ or `pwd`/ if you want to specify an absolute  path  in-
	 stead of a relative path.

NOTES
     This script is meant for use with Berkeley DB based bogofilter versions.

     This script requires a SUSv2 compliant pax utility.

     This  script  expects  a SUSv2 compliant shell. Solaris systems should have
     the SUNWxcu4 package installed (when  bogofilter  is  configured)	so  that
     /usr/xpg4/bin/sh can be used.
