Have you thought about storing your store listings on disc? Easier to search than a file full of paper. You'd have to have some method of naming files, depending on the data stored.

Hi all,

I'm hoping for some answers to some mundane questions, all having to do
with switching from 9-track tape to DAT.

1. Tape labels.
 

2. :STORE listings.

Maybe this is an anachronism, but I always print a listing when I do a
backup. With 9-track tapes, these were easy to store, but with DATs, the
tapes and listings are always getting separated. The listings are most
useful for old tapes, when I'm likely to be looking for the latest
version of some file that was purged last year because I knew I'd never
need it again. Does anyone have a handy system for dealing with this? Or
should we just quit printing the listings (about 75 physical pages)?
