[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #44007] tar %!xtest fails on Windows due to filesep issues and tar.exe issues

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #35, bug #44007 (project octave):

After substituting GNU tar I get very close.  The problem now is that the
output filelist has CR/NL as the line separator and the m-file is coded to
assume just NL.  I can work around that by modifying the ostrsplit call.  So
really, it comes back to whether we can get a tar that works with native
separators and returns output on stdout.  GNU tar seems to fit the bill.
