Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-current@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hi! Recently I started using mt(8) with HP SCSI DAT drive. After using this command on Solaris I badly miss the information about file #. How to get this info? Without it it's unnecesarily difficult to rewind the tape with 'bsf' and 'fsf' not knowing where I am presently. Maybe it's an option to mt(8) which I overlooked... OS is a week old -current.
