+cat << EOF
+Star is a very fast tar-like tape archiver with improved functionality.
+Star archives and extracts multiple files to and from a single file
+called a tarfile. A tarfile is usually a magnetic tape, but it can be
+any file. In all cases, appearance of a directory name refers to the
+files and (recursively) sub-directories of that directory.
+
+Star was first created in 1982 to extract tapes on a UNIX clone that
+had no tar command. In 1985 the first fully functional version has been
+released as mtar.
+
+When the old star format extensions have been introduced in 1985, it
+was renamed to star (Schily tar). In 1994, Posix 1003.1-1988 extensions
+were added and star was renamed to star (Standard tar).
