I'm looking for documentation, or an example program, that can read and
parse the floppy files created by MS-DOS's "backup" program.  I want to
create a tool that can handle the disks we get sent by our clients
in a little more convenient way than the standard "restore" does.

Any help or pointers appreciated.  Please e-mail.  I will post a summary
if requested.
