- Copy stable/10 (r259064) to releng/10.0 as part of the
10.0-RELEASE cycle.
- Update __FreeBSD_version [1]
- Set branch name to -RC1

[1] 10.0-CURRENT __FreeBSD_version value ended at '55', so
start releng/10.0 at '100' so the branch is started with
a value ending in zero.

In usr.bin/mt/mt.c, the c_code member of struct commands should really
be an unsigned long, since it will contain values of ioctl request
codes. On 64-bit arches, these will not fit into an int.

A minor overhaul: added comments, split cmds in 2, changed synopsis.

Split commands into two groups: one with optional count and one with
required argument. Changed synopsis line accordingly.

Added some hopefully-helpful comments based on experiments, knowing
that not all hardware works the same.

Print out resid portion of MTIOCGET returned data.


70545 31-Dec-2000 mjacob

Oops, I'm such an idiot. For reasons I don't really agree with,
all devices are by default known by their 'cooked' name, so
my change was wrong. I thought it was a hangover from old 'block
tape device' support which hasn't worked (if it ever did) since
v6/PWB.

So, the default tape name is now the same as Linux. Far out, man....


70534 31-Dec-2000 mjacob

The default is /dev/nrsa0 (now), not /dev/nsa0.

57695 02-Mar-2000 sheldonh

Remove more single-space hard sentence breaks.


57670 01-Mar-2000 sheldonh

Remove single-space hard sentence breaks. These degrade the quality
of the typeset output, tend to make diffs harder to read and provide
bad examples for new-comers to mdoc.

$Id$ -> $FreeBSD$


48792 12-Jul-1999 nik

Add $Id$, to make it simpler for members of the translation teams to
track.

The $Id$ line is normally at the bottom of the main comment block in the
man page, separated from the rest of the manpage by an empty comment,
like so;

.\" $Id$
.\"

If the immediately preceding comment is a @(#) format ID marker than the
the $Id$ will line up underneath it with no intervening blank lines.
Otherwise, an additional blank line is inserted.

44397 02-Mar-1999 mjacob

Print actual density code as well as string for density- I dunno about others,
but I sure remember 0x15 easier than 'ECMA 17'. Also handle density codes
0 (default) and 0x7f ('same') as special cases.


43629 05-Feb-1999 mjacob

Print relative (mt_fileno, mt_blkno) position, if known.

Implement "eod" as an alias for "eom". HP-UX uses this name, for
example.

Also cleaned up the man page a little.


27752 29-Jul-1997 charnier

Use err(3) instead of local redefinition.

. cast the error and status registers properly to (unsigned short),

Add `retens', the user frontend for MTRETENS.


11608 21-Oct-1995 bde

Return early in printreg() when the pointer is NULL. For FreeBSD, the
strings describing the drive status and error bits are so deficient
that the pointer is always NULL.

Reported by: Philippe Charnier <charnier@lirmm.fr>


9541 16-Jul-1995 joerg

Remove the dangerous "eof" command that used to be an alias for "weof"
but usually got confused with "eom". It didn't ring the warning bell
saying: "You are probably going to mark your whole tape as deleted
right now."

A warning message pointing to "weof" and "eom" is issued instead.


7929 18-Apr-1995 joerg

Make mt(1) orthogonal: now that we print the densities as strings
instead of hex, make it accept density names for input, too.


7913 17-Apr-1995 joerg

Round #1 of my st(1) -> mt(1) merge. All the commands should be
covered now, and i've attempted to give textual representations
instead of magic numbers.

The st(4) driver still misses some pieces; i'm going to implement the
EOM functionality RSN.

Any takers for the MTCOMP command? Seems to have never been implemented.
