Does anyone know of a good utility script that can be used to automate multi-
volume backups on Iris 4D stations? All of the ones I have seen use dump or
will not figure out which portions of a filesystem will fit on one tape, so
that tar can be used. The last time I checked with SGI about bru, the hotline
told me that it basically was not going to work with my version of the 
operating system, (v3.14). I now have one machine running v3.2, but one is 
still on 3.14. I'm sorry for asking what is probably  a common question,
but I have looked elsewhere. Thanks in advance.

Also: Are any versions of emacs available as share/free/low-cost/ ware?
