GNU version of the tar archiving utility
Tar is a program for packaging a set of files as a single archive in tar format. The function it performs is conceptually similar to cpio, and to things like PKZIP in the DOS world. It is heavily used by the Debian package management system, and is useful for performing system backups and exchanging sets of files with others. Due to conflicts with busybox and SDK, the binary of 'tar' is stored in /usr/bin/gnu, which could be added to $PATH, and also available as 'gtar'.

Maelstrom, an asteroids clone
Maelstrom is a 1993 clone of Asteroids originaly for the Macintosh by Ambrosia Software and later made into a GPLed port by Sam Lantinga. More more information see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maelstrom_(1993_video_game)
You pilot your ship through the dreaded "Maelstrom" asteroid belt -- suddenly your best friend thrusts towards you and fires, directly at your cockpit. You raise your shields just in time, and the battle is joined. The deadliest stretch of space known to mankind has just gotten deadlier. Everywhere massive asteroids jostle for a chance to crush your ship, and deadly shinobi fighter patrols pursue you across the asteroid belt. But the deadliest of them all is your sister ship, assigned to you on patrol. The pilot, trained by your own Navy, battle hardened by months in the Maelstrom, is equipped with a twin of your own ship and intimate knowledge of your tactics.
The lovely Stratocaster R&R facility never sounded so good, but as you fire full thrusters to dodge the latest barrage you begin to think you'll never get home...
