[Arpix-devel] Tarlib

[Giovanni C. <val...@li...>]

Hi!

I've downloaded GNU tar 1.13 source code, and I've started writing the
code for opening/closing/content-listing tar file. But, I have a
question.
My doubt is whether I should use the original source code, patching it a
little, or should I write some brand new code, using the original one as
reference?
Please note that the original code is a real mess. Thus, I'd prefer the
latter solution, even though the former is easier.

May I have your opinion?

	Thanks,
		Giovanni
