Have a look in http://www.tuhs.org/Archive/PDP-11/Tools/Tapes/
at the tp tools. I know I wrote some C programs to deal with tap, but on the road so
can't see exactly where I put them.
Cheers, Warren

How to to extract a ".tap" file? What
tools?
I forgot that I asked this before and was answered off-list pointing to
a non-existent URL which I found archived elsewhere:
http://marc.info/?l=classiccmp&m=104968973930145
I may try some of this.
I found http://man.cat-v.org/unix-1st/1/tap
manual but I haven't
found
corresponding tool (even in tuhs source code
archive).
The file I am trying to extract is
http://bitsavers.trailing-edge.com/bits/BSD/BSD4.1_bootable.tap.gz
(12
MB). I can view some of the plain text in it.
I tried historical ar (which I have used for some other 1970's
images),
restore, and tar. file(1) says it is a
"Maple help database".
