Thankyou for all the help.

 I found out that the required files were ascii, so copied a disk image and 
made it into a tar file, so then the raw data could be read, which was mostly 
ascii text anyway, and the relevant data extracted.
 I tried mounting as listed below, but to no avail. Someone said that sco use 
their own patanted htfs file system, so I think that may be the case here.
