Linux Fu: Shell Script File Embedding - You need to package up a bunch of files, send them somewhere, and do something wit... - https://hackaday.com/2021/04/09/linux-fu-shell-script-file-embedding/ #shellscripting #linuxhacks #featured #uuencode #linuxfu #tarball #skills #base64 #linux #bash #tar

Does anyone know of a multi-file streaming archiving tool that can accept input from pipes, FIFOs, or commands? #tar can do what I want for output with -O, but not on input, because each file's header contains a size, which of course wouldn't be known for streaming input. Must be able to separate files back out again on the other end.

The closest I've come is #uuencode, which can concatenate output and #uudecode will identify the individual components - but of course it has a space penalty.
