.f
This program transfers files written by the DEC-10 BACKUP
program and copies
them into selected directories on the VAX.
This program has been designed to conveniently handle
ASCII source, text, and data files.
_.EXE, .REL, .BIN, .LIB, .SAV, .PLT, .SFD
and other binary 
files will not be copied properly.  DEC-10 object files are in no way 
compatible with the VAX hardware or software.
.s
To Use Dumper:
.br
$ MOUNT MTA0:/FOR###! To mount your magtape.
.br
$ DUMPER############! To run the program.

The following list of commands are used in DUMPER:
.s
USE tape-name
.BR
To select the tape drive (eg MTA0:)
.s
RESTORE vaxdir=files
.br
To indicate which files to copy from the tape and the VAX directory
to copy them to.  An asterisk may be used for a wild-card in the file
specification.  For DEC-10 PPN's, an underscore (__) is used in place
of the first comma.  (EG. [MYDIR]=[11__11]TEXT.DAT or []=[11__11,SUB]*.*)
This can be repeated up to 200 times.  For interchange mode tapes, use
[*] as the directory name since no directory name is saved for the files.
For DEC-20 filenames using a minus sign (-), use underscore instead.
