8.1.4.5: `/dev/zqft*', `/dev/nzqft*'

ftape-4.04 no longer supports automatic compression with the lzrw3 algorithm. See Compatibility with ftape-3.04d.

However, decompression of archives produced with ftape-3.04d (and earlier versions) is still supported in order to preserve compatibility with existing backups.

When the ftape-4.04 driver is used with these device nodes, it treats the cartridge as write protected, as writing of compressed volumes is no longer supported.
