Johnny,
I do use SIGTAPES.SUM to browse through the contents of the tapes with an editor, but
when using GREP or similar key word search the name of the tape is only at the top of
pages and it is sometimes difficult to figure out which tape it is on. Searching the .txt
files shows which file the match is in but is slower. I always that some sort of database
with the file names and key words would be helpful, but the free text search works ok.
Being able to quickly mount the virtual disk is the real time saver.
Best Regards,
Mark

Mark, I have them as well. And I'll put them on MIM::DECUS:.
Do you know that SIGTAPES.SUM is a concatenation of all the TXT files for the different
tapes, so you only have to search one file?

Dave,
I have the RSX SIG library up on Frodo (30.1), a PDP-11/83 as a series of virtual
disk images
which came from Tim Shoppa?s CDROM. The virtual disks are just large enough to hold the
files
from a particular SIG tape. I use a GREP batch job to search the contents in the .TXT
files to
find what I am looking for when I need something. The MOUNT.CMD (from Tim S.) mounts the
Virtual disk with a logical name like RSX82A: so several can be open at once for
comparison.
Are you looking for a particular one or the whole set? A listing of the directory
that they are in is below.
I could move the ones you want into the public [DECNET] directory so you can copy them.
Best,
Mark
