No, sure didn't. But that dos tar DOES have the oddity of having an
-N flag for 'binary', hardly anything saves correctly if you leave it
out. Anyway, think I'll try auto fuel hose and see what happens.

Hello All - bah, was just playing with my QIC
drive, a WangTek
5150ES (Using dos tar!) and halfway thru the first listing
tape stops. Turns out the rubber what drives the tape has gotten
very soft. Anybody have a box full of cheap replacements?
Oops... it appears that you didn't use the /LCV (lowest capstan
viscosity) flag ;-) to prevent the tar command from attempting to turn
the rubber capstan into a tarry substance. :-(
