Hi.  I hope this has reached the moderator for fa.info-vax?
I tried to postnews the following request to both net.decus and
fa.info-vax this am.  Fortunately, I was unable to post to info-vax directly
and figured out/remembered/re-read that postings to info-vax go through a
moderator.  Thanks.

Subject: need tar read/write program for MicroVax vms 4.x
Keywords: tar vax vms

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.
