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. AUTHORS Matthias Andree Bogofilter 05/19/2019 BF_TAR(1)
