Reading dump tapes

something like restore ; what ; mt fsf; . . . but I had problems with this
approach. I could make it work by doing restore; mt rewind; restore skip etc.
but this is slow. Some people suggested using mt's asf option which might well
have done the trick but the bouquet goes to Dave Mitchell of Fretwell-Downing
Data Systems <davem@fdgroup.co.uk> who supplied a C program which does exactly
what I want and is much faster than my scripted restore solution. As is my
practice, I won't post the code to save everyone's bandwidth, but if anyone wants
it please mail me - I'll collect the requests and mail the code to those who are
interested.
Kindest regards,
