+/* A tar archive consists of 512-byte blocks.
+   Each file in the archive has a header block followed by 0+ data blocks.
+   Two blocks of NUL bytes indicate the end of the archive.  */
+
+/* The fields of header blocks:
+   All strings are stored as ISO 646 (approximately ASCII) strings.
+
+   Fields are numeric unless otherwise noted below; numbers are ISO 646
+   representations of octal numbers, with leading zeros as needed.
+
+   linkname is only valid when typeflag==LNKTYPE.  It doesn't use prefix;
+   files that are links to pathnames >100 chars long can not be stored
+   in a tar archive.
+
+   If typeflag=={LNKTYPE,SYMTYPE,DIRTYPE} then size must be 0.
+
+   devmajor and devminor are only valid for typeflag=={BLKTYPE,CHRTYPE}.
+
+   chksum contains the sum of all 512 bytes in the header block,
+   treating each byte as an 8-bit unsigned value and treating the
+   8 bytes of chksum as blank characters.
+
+   uname and gname are used in preference to uid and gid, if those
+   names exist locally.
+
+   Field Name	Byte Offset	Length in Bytes	Field Type
+   name		0		100		NUL-terminated if NUL fits

+   size		124		12
+   mtime	136		12
+   chksum	148		8
+   typeflag	156		1		see below
+   linkname	157		100		NUL-terminated if NUL fits
+   magic	257		6		must be TMAGIC (NUL term.)
+   version	263		2		must be TVERSION
+   uname	265		32		NUL-terminated
+   gname	297		32		NUL-terminated
+   devmajor	329		8
+   devminor	337		8
+   prefix	345		155		NUL-terminated if NUL fits
+
+   If the first character of prefix is '\0', the file name is name;
+   otherwise, it is prefix/name.  Files whose pathnames don't fit in that
+   length can not be stored in a tar archive.  */
