- You can use DATman. It is part of IRIX 4.0.5F available for your
- Indigo. Using DATman you can record to DAT from either a disc file
- or direct from the Indigo audio inputs. DATman does not protect you
- from yourself. It works just like a taperecorder and does not
- prevent you recording over existing information (unless of course the
- whole tape is write-protected).
