HDSware Tape Contents

This page describes the contents of the HDSware tape.

HDSware Tape Contents
The HDSware tape contains server code files, fonts, client application programs, utility programs, font management programs, etc. The filenames are in UNIX format rather than the ISO 9660 format of the CD-ROM. The tape itself consists of a tar file which contains a number of directories. The directories are shown below with their subdirectories.
