Anyone out there have a version of a program to allow the reading of damaged cpio archives (mainly on tape). I think I remember something about a program - afio - that allowed you to skip bad headers, and sync on the first good header it finds. Anyone got afio, or an equivalent - I dont want to reinvent the wheel. I don't have anon ftp. With proper info, I could uucp it, or just have it mailed to me piece by peice. Thanks in advance. BTW: I'm emailing Rich Salz to see if he happens to have this archived from sources.unix. I've posted also since he is a busy person, and may not be able respond as quickly as someone who does not administer an archive. Calvin Hayden Texas Instruments, Johnson City, Tn.
