Language: Fortran,C


The main aim of this package is recognition data structure and copying tape content to more modern media. While copying, the following transformations are possible:
- decoding text data from 6-bit CDC representation to 8-bit ASCII;
- decoding binary data from internal CDC representation to target computer
representation.

There are 3 modifications of CTLOOK for 3 types of target computers:
Convex, VAX, IBM PC. The main program is Fortran-written.
For Convex the C-written tape driver is attached.
For VAX the tape reading is performed via direct system function call.
For PC only disk-image of tape can be used. This image can be created on Convex or VAX.

Sources of CTLOOK are submitted.
