Tape: VAX90B Section: [.HPTAPE] Reviewer: Todd Aven INSTALLATION : 5 DOCUMENTATION : 3 INTENDED AUDIENCE : System Managers, Users EASE OF USE : 5 USEFULNESS : 2 (making assumptions about # of HP3000's) SOURCES INCLUDED : YES (FORTRAN) OBJECTS SUPPLIED : NO DESCRIPTION: The HPTAPE submission allows reading text files from HP3000 backup tapes onto VAX/VMS systems. It does not purport to read binary data. OBSERVATIONS: For individuals who have data on tape in HP3000 backup format, this is an eminently useful tool. However, we don't have any HP3000's and can not verify the functionality. The FORTRAN code looks clean and well-structured, so I would expect it to work as advertised.
