2. Usage *tar-usage* *tar-manual*
When one edits a *.tar file, this plugin will handle displaying a
contents page. Select a file to edit by moving the cursor atop
the desired file, then hit the <return> key. After editing, one may
also write to the file. Currently, one may not make a new file in
tar archives via the plugin.

*:Vimuntar*
VIMUNTAR~

2010-07-28 18:17:41 +02:00
:Vimuntar [vimhome]
2010-01-06 20:52:26 +01:00
This command copies, if necessary, the tarball to the .vim or vimfiles
directory using the first writable directory in the |'runtimepath'|
when no [vimhome] is specified. Otherwise, the [vimhome] argument
allows the user to specify that directory, instead.
The copy is done using the command in *g:tar_copycmd* , which is >
cp for cygwin, unix, macunix
copy for windows (32, 95, 64, 16)
< The extraction is done with the command specified with
*g:tar_extractcmd* , which by default is >
"tar -xf"
<
PREVENTING LOADING~
If for some reason you do not wish to use vim to examine tar'd files,
you may put the following two variables into your <.vimrc> to prevent
the tar plugin from loading: >
let g:loaded_tarPlugin= 1
let g:loaded_tar = 1
<

3. Options *tar-options*
These options are variables that one may change, typically in one's
<.vimrc> file.

Default
Variable Value Explanation
2011-06-19 05:09:16 +02:00
*g:tar_browseoptions* "Ptf" used to get a list of contents
*g:tar_readoptions* "OPxf" used to extract a file from a tarball
*g:tar_cmd* "tar" the name of the tar program
*g:tar_nomax* 0 if true, file window will not be maximized
*g:tar_secure* undef if exists:
2010-01-06 20:52:26 +01:00
"--"s will be used to prevent unwanted
2008-08-09 17:55:22 +00:00
option expansion in tar commands.
Please be sure that your tar command
accepts "--"; Posix compliant tar
2010-01-06 20:52:26 +01:00
utilities do accept them.
2008-08-09 17:55:22 +00:00
if not exists:
2010-01-06 20:52:26 +01:00
The tar plugin will reject any tar
files or member files that begin with
"-"
2008-08-09 17:55:22 +00:00
Not all tar's support the "--" which is why
it isn't default.
2011-06-19 05:09:16 +02:00
*g:tar_writeoptions* "uf" used to update/replace a file
