Does anyone know where to get sources for the TAR archiver so that  
someone can extract files from a .TAR archive?  
 
 
 
Also I want to find out where to obtain the sources to COMPRESS,
 
which creates files with the .Z extension on Unix.

There have been TAR programs on the SIG tapes for the last couple of years.

There have been COMPRESS/UNCOMPRESS programs on the SIG tapes for the last
couple of years.

I think that it's on anonymous FTP from prep.ai.mit.edu
(possibly in /pub/gnu or something, I don't remember).
