If you requested but have not received a copy of (a) my program to read
Xenix disks under MSDOS or (b) my modification of GNU tar to do the
same [and compile under Borland's Turbo C], send me an ordinary postal
address.

I have responded to all requests PROPERLY mailed to me, but some addresses
have resulted in returned mail.

I will ship 5.25 inch floppies in Xenix tar format unless otherwise
specified. In other words, I will make the floppies with the following
commands:

format /dev/fd096ds9

tar 4cv .

I am testing my own pdtar (public domain tar) to read/write from/to
XENIX/MSDOS now. When this is stable, I will post an announcement to
this effect.

If you want to be really helpful, send me a gummed return address label
that I can slap on the envelope with YOUR disk in it.
