(I realize that the prime newsgroup for this posting is fa.info-vax
but I don't have access ...)
I saw mention of tar tape reading (and writing?) programs for VMS
machines just as I began following 'news' a month or two ago but was
too timid to ask at that point.  Could someone e-mail me such a
program, preferably in Fortran or MACRO, suitable for a VMS 4.x 
MicroVax (i.e., not in compatibility mode).
Apparently I cannot 'anonymous ftp' anything from any machine other
than sdcsvax.  Also I don't have easy access to the latest DECUS
offerings yet, although I am a member.  Thanks very much.
