Hi all,
I am running a tar command to copy oracle datafiles out to tape, and am
excluding our read-only datafiles by using the '-e' flag. I wondered whether
there was a way to use this to specify a file including the list of all
files I wish excluded, rather than repeating lots of '-e' statements.
I see that there is a flag '-R' which is sort of what I want to do, but not
exactly. '-R' = the named file immediately following this option contains a
list of file names separated by newlines.
Any pointers???

Thanks in advance
