This method creates the archive file and adds the listed files or
directories.
If the file already exists and is writable, it is replaced
by the new tar. It is a 'create' and not a 'add'. If the file exists
and is read-only or is a directory, it is not replaced.
Parameter
mixed $filelist -
an array of filenames and directory
names, or a single string with names separated by a single blank space.
string $add_dir - contains a path to be
added to the memorized path of each element in the list.
string $remove_dir - contains a path to be
removed from the memorized path of each element in the list, when
relevant. Default is an empty string.
Return value
boolean - Returns TRUE on success, FALSE on failure.
