rawtap Allows extract, create and append operations on .tap files. cpytap Copies a .tap file to a new .tap file while allowing file level edits; skip file, replace file, append files and insert files. Any files copied from the original source .tap will have their internal record structure maintained. cosy COSY is the compressed format used by the CDC1700. This program allows for extraction of all files from an archive and the creation of a new archive. It assumes that you would have used raw tap about to have extracted the COSY file from a tape. dbtap Utility to read, write and list .tap containers written in the DOS/BATCH-11 format. It understands ascii and binary modes and can be used to transfer files in and out of most PDP-11 operating systems (not sure about RSTS/E), early VMS and early TOPS-10 systems.

dbtap manipulates .tap magtape container files used by SIMH and written in
|
|
DOS/BATCH-11 file format. dbtap is invoked by:
|
|
|
|
dbtap -lcae [-r len -A <list> -E -S -P pg,pj] container [...]
|
|
|
|
To list the contents of one or more container files:
|
|
|
|
dbtap -l container ...
|
|
|
|
To create a new container file and append file(s):
|
|
|
|
dbtap -c [-r len -A <list> -S -P pg,pj] container file ...
|
|
|
|
To append file(s) to an existing container:
|
|
|
|
dbtap -a [-r len -A <list> -S -P pg,pj] container file ...
|
|
|
|
To extract file(s) from container(s):
|
|
|
|
dbtap -e [-A <list> -E] container ...
|
|
|
|
Switches:
|
|
|
|
-r len Specify max tape record size when writing.
|
|
(512 <= len <= 65536).
|
|
|
|
-A <list> By default, files are transferred in Binary mode. This switch
|
|
is used to specify file extensions which should be transferred
|
|
in Ascii mode (e.g. ".MAC:.BAT" or ".MAC,.BAT").
|
|
|
|
-E Include prog,proj in filename when extracting.
|
|
(e.g. FILE_ggg_jjj.EXT").
|
|
|
|
-S DOS/BATCH-11 uses 6+3 (name+extension) for filenames including
|
|
on magtape. Over time, the magtape definition changed to
|
|
allow 9+3 filenames by adding an extra word to the filename
|
|
record. By default, this program uses the 9+3 format but
|
|
the -S switch may be used to force 6+3 filenames when writing
|
|
to tape.
|
|
|
|
-P pg,pj Specify prog,proj number when writing to tape. Numbers are in
|
|
octal. Default is [1,1].
