+.SH NAME
+tcopy \- copy a magnetic tape
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.LP
+.nf
+\fBtcopy\fR \fIsource\fR [\fIdestination\fR]
+.fi
+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.sp
+.LP
+The \fBtcopy\fR utility copies the magnetic tape mounted on the tape drive
+specified by the \fBsource\fR argument. The only assumption made about the
+contents of a tape is that there are two tape marks at the end.
+.sp
+.LP
+When only a source drive is specified, \fBtcopy\fR scans the tape, and displays
+information about the sizes of records and tape files. If a destination is
+specified, \fBtcopy\fR makes a copies the source tape onto the
+\fIdestination\fR tape, with blocking preserved. As it copies, \fBtcopy\fR
+produces the same output as it does when only scanning a tape.
+.sp
+.LP
+The \fBtcopy\fR utility requires the use of Berkeley-compatible device names.
+For example,

+.LP
+\fBtcopy\fR will only run on systems supporting an associated set of
+\fBioctl\fR(2) requests.
