While creating my first guestfish script I noticed an inconsistency in
the guestfish(1) man page. The option tgz-out references "tar_out",
which does not exist, instead its called "tar-out". The same is true for
tgz-in/tar_in. After a quick grep in the code its not clear to me how to
resolve this issue.

This is a documentation bug: in fact guestfish lets you use
either tar-in or tar_in alike.
$ guestfish tar-in
tar-in should have 2-3 parameter(s)
type 'help tar-in' for help on tar-in
$ guestfish tar_in
tar_in should have 2-3 parameter(s)
type 'help tar_in' for help on tar_in
Also you can use the deprecated tgz-in functions and friends. We've
no intention of removing them.
I'll fix the documentation.
Rich.
