If a copy of ansitar can't be found, I have a copy that I'll send to
the archives.  The original was posted to net.sources in Nov. '84 by

NAME
     ANSITAR - a program to read and write ANSI labeled tapes

SYNOPSIS
     ansitar [crxtvblnf] [blocksize] [labelsize] [filecount] file

DESCRIPTION
     Ansitar is a program which reads and writes ANSI format
     labelled tapes.  Its options are similar to tar:

     c       create a tape

     r       replace (update) a tape

     x       extract files

     t       print table of contents

     v       set verbose mode: for crx, print names; for t print
             labels

     0-9     select drive 0-9 (default 0)

     b       use next argument as a block size (default is 2048
             bytes)

     B       use next argument as tape block size, and following
             argument as line size (for blocking/unblocking)

     l       use next arg as a label size

     U       select upper(out)/lower(in) case translation of
             names

     R       use RT11 label and name conventions (UGH!)

     S       use RSTS conventions (==RT11 except 80-byte labels)

     P       create/read files in "pip" (FILES-11) counted for-
             mat.

     D       read variable length records (D format)

     n       do not rewind tape at completion of processing

     f       use next argument as number of files to search for t
             or x options.  Ignored if file names specified.

     The filename may contain * to indicate a wild card; however,
     the asterisk should be enclosed in quotes to prevent the
     shell from interpreting it.
