TarInfo.tobuf(format=DEFAULT_FORMAT, encoding=ENCODING, errors='surrogateescape') Create a string buffer from a TarInfo object. For information on the arguments see the constructor of the TarFile class. Changed in version 3.2: Use 'surrogateescape' as the default for the errors argument.

sys.argv The list of command line arguments passed to a Python script. argv[0] is the script name (it is operating system dependent whether this is a full pathname or not). If the command was executed using the -c command line option to the interpreter, argv[0] is set to the string '-c'. If no script name was passed to the Python interpreter, argv[0] is the empty string. To loop over the standard input, or the list of files given on the command line, see the fileinput module.

ctypes.FormatError([code]) Windows only: Returns a textual description of the error code code. If no error code is specified, the last error code is used by calling the Windows api function GetLastError.

TarFile.getmembers() Return the members of the archive as a list of TarInfo objects. The list has the same order as the members in the archive.

tixCommand.tix_filedialog([dlgclass]) Returns the file selection dialog that may be shared among different calls from this application.

An optional dlgclass parameter can be passed as a string to specified what type of file selection dialog widget is desired. Possible options are tix, FileSelectDialog or tixExFileSelectDialog.
