| May 5, 2019 at 15:09 | comment | added | Ned64 | How about just writing a shell script which wraps around tar and appends to the tar file? Or create a temporary file yourself. tar cannot append from stdin. | |

| May 5, 2019 at 12:32 | comment | added | lug_wrench | The actual command is a python script which uses convert and outputs a png to stdout. Yes, I wish to run the command several times, each time specifying a different filename. | |
| May 5, 2019 at 12:02 | comment | added | Kusalananda♦ | But if the data is coming in over the standard input stream, how would you distinguish the individual files? Or are you adding a file at a time by running the pipeline multiple times? What's the actual command at the start of your pipeline? | |
| May 5, 2019 at 11:56 | comment | added | lug_wrench | I need to put multiple files into the archive which is not possible with gzip, but with tar and 7zip it is. | |
| May 5, 2019 at 11:40 | comment | added | Kusalananda♦ | Why would you need to create a tararchive? Would it not be eough to just compress it with e.g.gzip? | |
