Abstract: BLKPIP is an OS/8 Transfer Program. Various OS/8 files

and blocks can be chained, creating a new file or a set of contiguous

blocks. The program replies with the command decoder "*" when called.

Sets of blocks are specified by starting block number, followed by the

octal number of blocks: NNNN, MMMM. If less than 100 (octal) blocks

are required, the two digit octal number can be given as "extension":

NNNN, MM. BLKPIP doesn't open files already existing. The program

is useful for blockwise transfer of data, recovering files from "smashed"

devices, etc.
