- In my wisdom I made me a streamer tape with bin01.* as the first tar set,
- src01.* as the second, and etc01.* as the third. And I find to my dismay
- that I got no way to position the tape. So, I can install the bin01 set,
- but the rest is out of reach, unless
-
- a) somebody tells me how to create no-rewind device names, or
- b) some kind soul makes me a binary of mt (or equivalent, I only
- need to skip files).
-
- I cannot find any (explicit) tape control support in libc.a...
-
- Thanks a bunch, whoever helps me out!
