I want to do like Flex and Hercules do where the tape is really a file
on DASD.

Go out to the CBTTAPE site and look for AWSTAPE info/programs. Sam Golob
can help with information there as well. You don't really need STARTIO,
or even EXCP, to emulate that format. AFAIK, Sam uses QSAM for the
actual I/O; the devil is in the format details.
