# This tool is in experimental status.
#
# Send me an email, if you have nice ideas.
#                  weule@uni-duesseldorf.de
#
#====================================================================
# Usage:
#
# First label a tape:
#     ddstool create-label 'unique-string and more strings'
#
# To archive something:
#     ddstool append pathnames...
#
# To delete the old index-files and make a new label:
#     ddstool new-label 'unique-string and more strings'
#
# Each index is stored by the pathnames:
#     $A/$unique-string.$file-number              (soft link)
#     $A/$timestamp-of-the-tapelabel.$file-number (file)
#
#====================================================================
# Sorry that I don't know the right method to extract something.
# For now it's more save to do it by hand.
#
#====================================================================
