Tom, you are right: it is just more complicated.
In fact, I did not pretend to demonstrate that it was easier or faster
using one file per tape.
As you can remember, I just did not understand why you said it was
*impossible* to recycle space in that case.
So, the conclusion is: you can do recycle space when using one file per
tape, but it is just more complicated than current design, isn't it?
PD: are we sure it is more complicated?
Thanks.
Manolo.
