The best way around it in this case would be to write the files that you want pax to pack up to a file,a nd then use the flag for pax that reads that list from the files.

Sounds great. I was hoping pax would have something like this, but I couldn't find any mention in the man pages (and still can't).

Anyone know what flag would do this?


Huh.. nope, it doesn't have this..

Damn. Oh well, thanks for trying. I guess I may have to use xargs, although I don't like the way it executes the command multiple times.

If it doesn't exist, xargs does look promising.


that's an option.. but why in the hell use pax anyways... tar works and it doesn't replace symbolic links that the user has created with files that it feels are more appropriate.

Unfortunately, I have no choice but to use pax for what I do. However, tar doesn't seem to have this option either...
