+Description: GNU version of the tar archiving utility
+ Tar is a program for packaging a set of files as a single archive in tar
+ format.  The function it performs is conceptually similar to cpio, and to
+ things like PKZIP in the DOS world.  It is heavily used by the Debian package
+ management system, and is useful for performing system backups and exchanging
+ sets of files with others.
