Yes, but PACOMP cannot create the archive as it needs "tar.gz / tar.bz2 " to perform the compression

Is that correct?

Yes - well at least before the archive type control extension (don't know if there might be something like
"create.this.archive.for.me.tar.gz" which works in PACL!! )

However, this is getting too complicated.
I would be happy just to PREFIX the archive name with time/date to give
YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS_name2.tar.gz
which I guess is much simpler (and clarifies why I asked for YEAR/Month/Day format).
