Eric,  I have been using the program m.dem.extract.  As I recall older versions
of this program expected the data to be on a tape and not your disk, but I think
this has been corrected.  I'm using a version that was modified by the U.S.G.S.
The blocksize I use for 7.5' dems is 8192.  

If you would like the version that I am using, contact me at:
