	Routines available in GRASS4.1:

	(1) Load TM imagery with "i.tape.tm";
	(2) Load SPOT imagery with "i.tape.spot";
	(3) If you encounter a different tape formats which cannot be handled
	    by above commands, use "i.tape.other".

	"i.tape.other" is a more generic command to read different kind of the
imagery. This command allows you read either from a tape or a disk file. The 
only thing you should aware before running "i.tape.other" is that you must
understand what are exactly on the tape and file format.

	If you have any problems, write directly to me, I would like to send you
more details.
