Also, if you want something to run on MS-DOS: http://www.dbit.com/pub/ibmpc/util/st.txt http://www.dbit.com/pub/ibmpc/util/st.exe http://www.dbit.com/pub/ibmpc/util/st.c http://www.dbit.com/pub/ibmpc/util/st.h http://www.dbit.com/pub/ibmpc/util/st.lnk Program: ST.EXE Description: ST is a SCSI tape utility program for DOS. It is intended for use with 9-track tapes or anything that acts like one -- 4mm DAT, 8mm (sort of), DLT, or DEC TZ30 or TK50Z-GA drives. It requires a DOS ASPI driver for talking to the SCSI port (e.g. ASPI8XX.SYS for Symbios 53C8xx based controllers, or ASPI8DOS.SYS for Adaptec AIC-78xx based ones such as the AHA2940xx). The commands are mostly a subset of the commands of the UNIX "mt" program. You can get a list by just typing "ST". Each command generally translates directly to one SCSI command, so this program is intended for simple dinking around (actually I wrote it just as a demo), nothing fancy. The only complicated commands are IGET and IPUT, which get a tape into an image file, or put an image file onto a tape. These are intended for transferring between Ersatz-11's image file format and actual tapes.
