DAR & DarGUI failing to restore

For information: I recently had occasion to restore a file and found 
that neither DarGUI (my usual access to the back-ups) nor DAR itself 
could restore, the error message in both cases being

" 3 inode(s) ignored (excluded by filters)".

In the case of DAR, I had failed to specify correctly the path of the 
file to be restored (lack of practice!); hint: use DAR's list function 
to see the correct path to the required file within the back-up.

In the case of DarGUI, I found I was still running version 1.0. Install 
of the latest version, 1.2, was enough to restore access.

With thanks to Denis Corbin and Malcolm Poole for the maintenance of two 
excellent packages.
