what cool stuff I find using linux.
I typed by accident "less file.tar.gz" and it displayed the directory
structure of the tarball. I was stunned! So I did it again. I then tested
it on a tar.bz2 with equally wonderfull results. Ditto on a .rpm and even
a .zip file.
So I go digging further into the man pages for less and find a wealth of
stuff that I didn't know was connected and setup. Wow!
