        !            12: .SH DESCRIPTION
        !            13: The \fIbbtar\fR program reads the BBoards database and produces on its
        !            14: standard output the names of BBoards archives which should be put to tape,
        !            15: for direct use in a \fItar\fR\0(1) command.
        !            16: 
        !            17: If the argument `private' is given,
        !            18: only private BBoards are considered.
        !            19: If the argument `public' is given,
        !            20: only public BBoards are considered.
        !            21: This lets the BBoards administrator write two tapes,
        !            22: one for general read\-access (the public BBoards),
        !            23: and one for restricted access.
        !            24: The default is all BBoards
        !            25: 
        !            26: For example:

        !            30: cd archive             # change to the archive directory
        !            31: tar cv `bbtar private`         # save all private BBoard archives

        !            35: After the archives have been saved to tape,
        !            36: they are usually removed.
        !            37: The archives are then filled again,
        !            38: usually automatically by cron jobs which run \fIbbexp\fR\0(8).
