[comp.sys.ibm.pc] tape drive software

Hi,

I'm looking for some software to drive a tape deck that can:

	compress/decompress data to & from the tape drive

	allows me to redirect its output to a file

	sets the variable "errorlevel" so a batch file can determine if it 
	should mail the output of that backup session to me or not

plus allow me the expected flexibility of backing up by file name, dir name,
volume name, last date of modification, or archive bit.

Any pointers would be appreciated.

thanx,
