c.	Software Description:

enTarä is an application that will painlessly backup your user data onto mass storage devices.  enTarä works with DAT, 8mm and other SCSI tape devices, and also floppy, optical and other removable disks.  In addition enTarä can back up your data to networked disks.  Because enTarä automatically configures tape device parameters, it works with any standard SCSI tape device.  enTarä features UNIX data compression and tar archive format so that archived data can be exchanged with other UNIX systems like SUN or IBM.  To ensure customer satisfaction, a unique demonstration mode allows risk free evaluation before purchase.

Features:
1. archiving
2. automatic configuration
3. UNIX data compression and tar archive format

Benefits:
1. Guards against data loss by backing up user data to tape, floppy, OD or networked disks.

2. Allows any standard SCSI tape device, like DAT or 8mm, to be used for archving on a NeXT.

3. Archived data is typically compressed by 50% and can be exchanged with other UNIX systems like SUN or IBM.
