            File transport system between RC4000/RC8000

File transport system between RC4000/8000:
------------------------------------------

With these programs it is possible in an easy  way  to  move  files
from  RC4000  to  RC8000 and the opposite way using magnetic tapes.

The system consist of 4 programs:

load4000
load8000
trans4000
trans8000

load4000 and trans4000 are found on the  RC8000  computer  and  the
other two on the RC4000.
To use this system you have to do following:
-------------------------------------------------------

Mount  a  magnetic  tape  and  give  this  tape  a  name.  Create a
filedescriptor which points at file 0 and block 0.
Then call the program trans4000/8000 with the name of the filedesc-
riptor as output parameter and the files you want to move as  input
parameters.  The  files will then be moved onto the tape which then
may be mounted on the other computer RC8000/4000. The files on  the
tape can now be loaded with the program load4000/8000.

Example:
---------

This  example shows how to move the file "beregning" from RC4000 to
the RC8000: A tape is mountet and a filedescriptor  is  created  by
the following command :
mts = set mto mts 0 0

mts=trans8000 beregning
This  command  will  then  move the file to the tape. On the RC8000
and load this file coan be loaded with the commands

mts=set nrz mtso 0 0
load4000 tape.mts beregning scope.user.

The tape must be called mtso.

                      algol program load8000




  "load8000" is the program which  takes  the  files  from  a  tape
created on the RC8000 and loads them on the RC4000.

call:
                      load8000 <tapename> <listspec.> <keyspec.>
                      <allspec.> <filelist>

                      /<empty>
                      <boolean>::=yes/no
      tapename        is the name of the  filediscriptor  descibing
                      the tape.

                      
      list.yes          specifies listing the names loaded.

                      
      key.<integer>     specifies  the  catalog key under which the
                      files are permanented.If no specification  is
                      made the files will not be permanented.

                      
      all.yes           specifies  that  all  files on the tape are
                      loaded.

                      
      filelist          The names of the files to be loaded.
