Thanks, I’ve applied your obvious refactor in my clone :) For clarity, I will split my patch into many patches for different reports (bug fixes and doc improvements for 3.2, then code cleanup in 3.3, then adding xz).

Yes, I confused the two formats. I reported the '.bz2' bug (should be '.tar.bz2') and will fix it.

I ripped them off. I could have pasted my full patch to save you time, sorry!
> For the "xztar" format, you should also perhaps recognize the ".txz" extension
Done. Google finds a number of matches. I won’t add '.tbz' though, as I don’t know if it’s bzip or bzip2, and as it does not seem used much. |
