| 2. Usage *tar-usage* *tar-manual* |
| |
| When one edits a *.tar file, this plugin will handle displaying a |
| contents page. Select a file to edit by moving the cursor atop |
| the desired file, then hit the <return> key. After editing, one may |
| also write to the file. Currently, one may not make a new file in |
| tar archives via the plugin. |
