Once upon a time, back around version 3.3, I found an undocumented flag for the MOUNT command that should have allowed you to read EBCDIC tapes. If I remember correctly the syntax was something like: $MOUNT/EBCDIC=(DATA,LABEL) Unfortunately I don't have access to the fische right now so I have no idea if this "feature" was ever removed/enhanced/overlooked/ignored. I can't even remember for sure whether it worked! However, it sure would be nice to have. John Sherwood Dalhousie University Halifax, Nova Scotia
