TarPit ReviewCrashes on... - Version: 1.4, 12/13/2007 07:18AM PST

I like Tarpit a lot, especially its control of compression, extensions, and-yes-resource forks. Versions above 1.2 crash on my 10.3.9 system, though.

TarPit Troubleshooting ReportWhat about resource forks? - Version: 1.0, 3/14/2004 08:39AM PST

Does TarPit divide OS 9/Classic files, Solomon-like, and discard the resource forks? Nice idea, but all Mac OS X tar automation needs a MacBinary step in the case of legacy files.
