read20 should print author information #66

Open ams opened 1 year ago

ams commented 1 year ago

TOPS-20 tapes store author information, read20 should print it.

For dump.h add:

#define WdoffAuthor      WdoffFDB+030   /* Author offset */

Then in doFileHeader:

    getstring(block, authorname, WdoffAuthor, sizeof(authorname), STRING);

and print it when in verbose mode:

printf("%5d%9d %2d %o %s %s %s", offline ? apgcount : pgcount,
                   numbytes, bytesize, tprot, timeptr, topsname, authorname);

Sounds like a good idea! When I try to compile read20, I notice lots of compiler warnings. I'll clean it up first, and then get to your change.

Hm, is there any reason to clean up? Wouldn't it be better to sync this version of read20 with the one in https://github.com/brouhaha/tapeutils ?

Rhialto commented 1 year ago

I wasn't aware of that version It seems the version have diverged. Maybe it is smarter to ask brouhaha to incorporate any improvements that KLH made to this version.

@brouhaha has mostly left the maintenance of https://github.com/brouhaha/tapeutils/ to me. Yes, I agree that merging all diverging versions to the brouhaha upstream would be good.
