MediaMerge for UNIX
MM/UNIX
is a software package that allows the UNIX user to restore, convert and
duplicate data via SCSI attached devices totally from within the UNIX environment.
The package can automatically detect, process and restore hundreds of different
tape formats. Data can be Bit converted from ASCII to EBCDIC or visa-versa, and
can optionally have Packed Decimal Fields decoded as well as other types of
record based data manipulation.
MediaMerge for PC
The applications for
MM/PC
are almost limitless. If it involves moved data between computers on magnetic tape,
then MM/PC can probably help solve any incompatibility problems. Data interchange, media conversion, forensic
analysis and restoring backups from any type of computer are all within a single software package.
Restore backups from any source
With MediaMerge/PC any PC with a suitable tape drive and SCSI adapter can restore backup tapes from almost
any source. It does not matter if the tape was generated using ArcServe, Sytos Plus, Mountain backup, NT
Backup, Backup Express, Unix, VAX/VMS backup or any other formats.
elftoaout
To convert the format from ELF into a.out you can use the program elftoaout. Besides with several distributions, you can find the elftoaout utility at
ftp://ultra.linux.cz/OS/Linux/Sparc/local/elftoaout or ftp://ftp.auxio.org/pub/vger/Sparc/tools.

currently used in molecular modeling. The program is available for Unix (AIX,
Ultrix, Sun-OS, Convex, SGI, Cray, Linux), MS-DOS, and on Macs running at least
System 7.0. Babel is capable of assigning hybridization, bond order, and
connectivity when these elements are not present in the input file.
