  These files were referenced in session VA213, "How to Recover Data
  from an Initialized 9-Track Tape".  
                                                                     

CONVERT_PRIME.FOR

  FORTRAN source for program used to make data from a 7-bit Prime tape
  usable on the VAX.  Files from the Prime tape had the high-order bit 
  of every byte set to 1.  This program reads a file with record length 
  less than or equal to 80, and clears the high bit on every byte.

CONVERT_RECORDS.FOR 

  FORTRAN source for program used to convert records from tape format
  to variable-length record file format.  See SESSION.NOTES for a
  description of the method used to read data from initialized tape.
  After the data was read, this program was used to read the data
  and convert it to a variable-lenght record format.

VA213_SESSION.NOTES

  Notes from Session VA213 "How to Recover Data from an Initialized
