Dare I suggest that it is because the directory structure is flat? :)
Can you point me at a ptar ? Would you like to a copy of my
GFfP-0.1.tar.gz file?
You can extract ptar from an older version of Archive::Tar
<http://search.cpan.org/dist/Archive-Tar-0.23/>,
Well, I wasn't interest in playing potential versionitis games....
or get a version of tar
for windows that I know to be working at
<http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/>,
So I chose to download the unxutils, and here is its analysis of
gunzip'd file built by M::B.
D:\GFfP>tar_unxutils tvf gffp-0.1.tar

or you can email me (off list) the
file and I'll take a look at it.
I'll do this too...

===========================
Like almost everyone, I receive a lot of spam every day, much of it
offering to help me get out of debt or get rich quick. It's ridiculous.
-- Bill Gates
And here is why it is ridiculous:
The division that includes Windows posted an operating profit of $2.26
billion on revenue of $2.81 billion.
--from Reuters via
http://biz.yahoo.com/rc/031113/tech_microsoft_msn_1.html
So that's profit of over 400% of investment... with a bit more
investment in Windows technology, particularly in the area of
reliability, the profit percentage might go down, but so might the bugs
and security problems? Seems like it would be a reasonable tradeoff.
WalMart earnings are 3.4% of investment.
