+name, cycle number, owner id, dates of last attach, last alteration and
+the creation date are printed.  Task \fBldumpf\fR lists the contents of a 
+DUMPF tape;
+to convert IPPS rasters stored on DUMPF tapes to IRAF images, use task
+\fBrdumpf\fR.
+.ih

+The Cyber format readers, including task \fIldumpf\fR, have not been 
+implemented on SUN/IRAF and AOS/IRAF.

+The current version of IRAF magtape I/O does not read beyond the first
+volume of a multivolume tape.
