This is output on my setup (I frequently forget that I did this):

$ tarhelp 

  helper definitions for tarcomp, untar, and tarls / tarlist:
  - tar[comp] -czvf archive.tar.gz file1 file2 dir1 file3
  - [un]tar -xvf archive.tar.gz
  - tar[ls|list] -tvf archive.tar.gz

A clever helper, I think. If I remember to use it.
