29 Notes on the tcl source file:
30 The control file that governs the file transfer is actually a
31 program, written by the user, in the Tape Control Language (TCL).
32 the contents of this control file describe the file transfer.  The
33 same control file can be used with both the tape_in and tape_out
34 commands.
