this listing of file types, or at least, which files are directories and

so that I can then easily pick out non-directory files.
star -tv -find -type d < file.tar
Or if you like to see the listing in typical find(1) output listing:
star -t -find -type d -ls -false < file.tar
Most find(1) constructs (including time stamps) work on archives and not only
in create mode on filesystems.
A recent star source is in:
ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/schily/
and it compiles/runs for/on Android - not shure whether this is true for gtar
as Android contains a lot of nasty things that prevent gnu autoconf from
working as expected an as gnu autoconf does not support cross-compilation.
For those who don't know: star turned 30 in August 2012.
