ANSI.BAS along with ANSI.DAT can be used to make a DOS/ANSI mixed tape (like
V9.x distribution/update tapes).  First, you zero the tape and write the DOS
part of the tape.  End the DOS part of the tape with [1,2]DOS.EOT.  Then run
ANSI.BAS.  ANSI.BAS copies data from ANSI.DAT.  This converts the tape from
DOS to ANSI at this point.  ANSI.BAS leaves the tape positioned so that
BACKUP/NOREWIND/NOVERIFY... can be used to add additional BACKUP container
sets.

Here's an ANSI.BAS example:
