Archive/GetBack File Format =========================== As used by the Archive/GetBack programs by Acorn originally for archiving/restoring fileserver and hard drive contents. http://mdfs.net/Apps/Archivers/Acorn. The format of a GetBack archive is as follows: Repeated for each file: name$ : cc cc ... 0D : Filename, terminated with type% : nn : File type - 1=file, 2=directory sequ% : nn : Disk sequence number, starts at 1 for first file load% : lo mm nn hi : load address exec% : lo mm nn hi : execute address len% : lo mm nn hi : length access% : xx : access byte mdate% : lo hi : modification date in NetFS format mtime% : hh mm : modification time (no seconds) The bytes of the file Stored filenames are in Acorn format, ie '.' directory seperators, and are the full path of the entry, usually with an absolute directory reference, eg "$.CAVE", "$.CAVE.!BOOT". If the filename starts with '.', the initial '.' is skipped. Entries can be in any order, but will tend to be in the order that they were encounted when adding them to the archive.
