Your mail message could not be delivered at Dickinson College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania because the user address was not known at our site. Addresses at Dickinson College are of the following format: username@DICKINSN e.g., POSTMASTER@DICKINSN or ALLAN_J@DICKINSN or WOLTER@DICKINSN Usernames are typically the first 8 letters of the person's last name, frequently with the first initial added, and occasionally with an underscore. As a result, it would be difficult to guess someone's username.

Chinni, SMCAR-CCS-E" Subject: Re: IBM, HONEYWELL OCTAL CODES TO UNIX PROBLEM X-To: "Charles F. Ashley" X-cc: unix-wizards@BRL.MIL To: Chris Leyon Charley, If the Unisys has a C compiler, you should be able to write a C program to read and interpret the RCW and BCW. C allows you to read in an octal value. The thing to be carefull of is how you open the tape device. I suggest reading the on-line manual entry on mt probably in section 7 (i.e. man 7 mt ) for a BSD-type system. If you get real lucky, someone will have already written something like this and had it put in the archive of public-domain unix-sources. /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ Michael J.
