I have some (old) code that does tape reading/writing/duplication/
conversion.

I haven't been able to use it fully under FreeBSD because for some of these 
operations I need to *know* (determine) the actual size of the tape blocks, 
and I haven't figured out how to do this yet.  This software can handle 
arbitrary blocksizes on the tape.  I don't *know* how often this really 
happened, but I know it used to work (for example, I have boot tapes where 
the first file was in 512-byte blocks, and subsequent files were 
262144-byte blocks (or something)).

PS - In case anybody remembers it, I'm talking about the Ansitar package.
