You didn't read, and you didn't search. The articles at http://www.aplawrence.com/Unixart/tapes.html and
http://www.aplawrence.com/Unixart/tapenotfound.html would
surely answer your question and they would have instantly popped up had you bothered to type "tape" in the search box.

So instead you waste everybody's time with a useless post. I'm sorry, but it's damn annoying: if people don't search before they post, they just waste time for themselves and everyone else.

Your answers are in the referenced articles. Don't post again without having at least tried to find the answer that way. If you try, and don't understand something, that's fine: ask your question. But don't waste our time with nonsense like this.

Many of the products and books I review are things I purchased for my own use. Some were given to me specifically for the purpose of reviewing them. I resell or can earn commissions from the sale of some of these items. Links within these pages may be affiliate links that pay me for referring you to them. That's mostly insignificant amounts of money; whenever it is not I have made my relationship plain. I also may own stock in companies mentioned here. If you have any question, please do feel free to contact me.

Specific links that take you to pages that allow you to purchase the item I reviewed are very likely to pay me a commission. Many of the books I review were given to me by the publishers specifically for the purpose of writing a review. These gifts and referral fees do not affect my opinions; I often give bad reviews anyway.
