The reason the tardy program was written was because the author wanted to “spruce up” tar files before posting them to the net, mostly to remove artefacts of the development environment, without introducing more.

The tardy program was designed to allow you to alter certain characteristics of files after they have been included in the tar file. Among them are:

Note that all of these affect all files in the archive.

Tardy runs on almost any flavor of UNIX. The source distribution is self configuring using a GNU Autoconf generated configure script.
