r and u options are supported when writing to a tape device.

Be aware that putting a new record on a tape is different from
appending to an existing record.
It's also safer. If one of the records is bad, you can use mt(1) to
skip over that record to read the next.

1. Can tar add files to .tar.gz archives ?
The command
tar rzf archive.tar.gz file
returns "abort"
If I don't want to ungzip the archive, I can't add files to it, isn't?
Thanks !
2. run X non-root on r.h. 6.2?
3. tar xzf file or tar -xzf file?
