Can not the rec= part of the file be placed on the put command:
Put c:\data\file tape;rec=-528,52,v,binary

I would think that perhaps the label= could be added as well.

Subject:        Can you specify file equation under the shell?

I ran the following:
mknod /dev/tape c 0 7



/usr/local/bin/unzip -p zipfile.zip > /dev/tape



Unfortunately, I can't specify the file format to tape.=20

such as:  file TAPE;DEV=3D7;REC=3D-528,52,V,BINARY;LABEL=3DABCD,IBM



 Any suggestions?
