I would agree, .tap file format certainly works for me.

Okay, I can even do a bit more--my dump was a straight-to-file,

If you can describe the layout of a VMS backup tape file, I'll be
happy to re-read the tape and segment off the stuff between filemarks.
Might as well learn something in the process.

Wouldn't it be best to read it into a .TAP file format if you are going do
anything with it?
Are you using your PCTD16 controller or something else to read the tape?
