The subject should give clear idea of what I am talking about.
But here is the thing.
I was trying to compress a folder using tarlz.
I used the option '--output=path/to/some/file'
But it seemed like I was getting garbage output in my terminal.
I assumed that is the option for output file .i.e the archive.
Anyway '--file=<archive>' seems to do the work that I was trying to do.
But then, '--output=<file>' is not clear to me. What does it do?
Thanks for reading.
