- Your `tar` stanza is wrong (if it's not obvious to you why that is, now is a good time to make a habit of using long options (e.g. `--gzip`) whenever possible).
Actually it is correct, aside from possible whitespace issues with $NAME. It is using an outdated syntax (short options all in a group _without_ a leading "-"), but doing it correctly with the needed option argument following the set of option letters.
I stand corrected. Apparently having the "f" in the middle is not a problem with the old syntax.
