Hi,
I made an image of an old tape I have (I think it has a copy of the
whitesmith's C compiler on it).
I'm not sure how it was made, however. I think it is just done with
PIP. It has a lot of tape marks separated by a variable number of
records.
The first record of each tape 'file' is 14 bytes. All records after
that are 512 bytes. The 512 byte records are clearly the file contents.
After the file contents there is a tape mark.
I'm guessing the 14 bytes is radix-50 file name + info.
What's the best way to make sense of this from unix? (short of running
RSTS on an emulator). Is there a unix/dos program which which can
interpret the data?
Will PUTR be able to read and show a directory if I turn the simh format
file into a byte stream? (wish putr could read simh style tape images)
thanks!
