Would that be accepted?  For some of my projects, I don't need nor

If you are going to parameterize it at all, then parameterize it
completely.  e.g.  --compressor=bzip2 [ --compression-suffix=bz2 ]
except there would be a table of defaults for the suffix:

I like this idea. One tweak:
pluralise the command:
--compressors=bzip2,gzip[,...]


Meaning you would produce more than one tarball?
Such an option would need something more explicit.
e.g. "make bzip2-dist gzip-dist ..."

        Have you an example of this kind of configuration ?

        Thanks in advance,
