[cobalt-users] Backing up with tar and gzip

["José Luis Chafardet G." <joseluis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello there list, thanks to all you that helped me to setup the
subdomain, now I have a new question, maybe more easy to answer.

Here I go:

How can I create a file.tar.gz without seeing all the content of the
file that is being created on the shell?

I mean, I don?t want to see this

7¶Å!ò0@,%GJÂ<ë¹z £
           z4('X-Ù¥,ÌÆ8dahHîÂ
                              ±a=eól/ÌAÐ                       ZBF^
           ÈFõ9­&c{qØGa!¡[@8·óMé%ü`eh»0ãè'ÐíÉEQü!Pàæ0ßùþe,ÀÅæFE   
           ´íuE2Ø ê~cXz°¡$^ð¤hÄ,@?(ÂÑ0÷¢ç±ÙôvÒ                        

that was the output of the next command

tar -cvf backupfile.tar dir


I don?t want to see all that, there is any way?

Thanks to all,
