Yet Another Way To Do This (YAWTDT).

FILES-11 tapes are merely ANSI standard tapes.

I posted a program called "trw" a couple of weeks ago to net.sources
which would read and write ansi standard tapes.  (Also IBM labeled tapes)

trw will take care of you fine.

(Only problem is that I think the girls who wrote it used the 4.2BSD
magtape ioctl's, however, it isn't extremely hard to convert)
