Creating a tar file from a list of files

If you wish to create a tar file using a text file which contains the list of files to be archived, you can do so using the xargs command.
$ cat filenames.txt | xargs tar -cvf allfiles.tar

If the list of file names contains spaces in file names or in the directory paths, you should put double quotes at the beginning and end of each line before you run the tar command, which you can do with the sed command.

$ sed -i 's/^/"/' filenames.txt
$ sed -i 's/$/"/' filenames.txt
