Listing Text Onto Magnetic Tape
You can write text to a nondisk device, such as magnetic tape, by specifying
a magnetic tape unit for the listfile. When you do this, you should also
specify the UNSEQ parameter. EDIT writes each line as one physical record
on tape; the length of the record is set by the OUTLEN parameter of the SET
command (the default length is 132 bytes). When all lines in the range are
written, EDIT writes an EOF mark on tape.
The following commands write the entire text file, without line numbers, to
a magnetic tape unit. Each line is written as one physical record on tape
containing 130 bytes. Lines containing fewer than 130 characters are
padded with trailing blanks. Characters to the right of column 130 are
written in a subsequent line(s) of 130 bytes (also padded with trailing
blanks if necessary).
*SET OUTLEN 130
*LIST UNSEQ OUT $TAPE ALL
