i cant open tar files

[mahrz]

i tried it with the console tar command but i got the answer
tar: Failed open to read on /dev/nrst0 <No such file or directory>
stuff it stopped the process with error -50.

Try tar -xvf filename
That usually does it for me.

or just use OpenUp for .tar.gz, .zip, and some .sit files. Don't use stuffit under classic because it will corrupt the .sit files. Stuffit for X seems to work fine cuz it unstuffed macster fine.

with tar -xfv that works, stuff it works sometimes but....
and i didn't found openup for the x beta only for dp4 where can i find it ?

Actually I couldn't find one for Beta either, just installed the one for DP4. Works fine.
