[Back to from where I started ... quarter-century ago.] Now, may I then suggest to update man restore ? I love examples in man pages when trying to comprehend what is going on. Therefor these examples should be easily understood. And it would be good to spice up dump and restore with contemporary examples, eventually including hard discs. Thanks to Nick, btw. I think I understand much better now ! Uwe
