.SH Description
|
|
.PP
|
|
The \fR\&\f(CWmcd\fR command is used to change the mtools working directory
|
|
on the MS-DOS disk. It uses the following syntax:
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
.nf
|
|
.ft 3
|
|
.in +0.3i
|
|
\&\fR\&\f(CWmcd [\fImsdosdirectory\fR\&\f(CW]
|
|
.fi
|
|
.in -0.3i
|
|
.ft R
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
\&\fR
|
|
.PP
|
|
Without arguments, \fR\&\f(CWmcd\fR reports the current device and working
|
|
directory. Otherwise, \fR\&\f(CWmcd\fR changes the current device and current
|
|
working directory relative to an MS-DOS file system.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The environmental variable \fR\&\f(CWMCWD\fR may be used to locate the file
|
|
where the device and current working directory information is stored.
|
|
The default is \fR\&\f(CW\(if$HOME/.mcwd\(is\fR. Information in this file is ignored
|
|
if the file is more than 6 hours old.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\&\fR\&\f(CWMcd\fR returns 0 on success or 1 on failure.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Unlike MS-DOS versions of \fR\&\f(CWCD\fR, \fR\&\f(CWmcd\fR can be used to change to
|
|
another device. It may be wise to remove old \fR\&\f(CW\(if.mcwd\(is\fR files at logout.

.SH Viewing\ the\ texi\ doc
|
|
This manpage has been automatically generated from mtools's texinfo
|
|
documentation. However, this process is only approximative, and some
|
|
items, such as crossreferences, footnotes and indices are lost in this
|
|
translation process. Indeed, these items have no appropriate
|
|
representation in the manpage format. Moreover, not all information has
|
|
been translated into the manpage version. Thus I strongly advise you to
|
|
use the original texinfo doc. See the end of this manpage for
|
|
instructions how to view the texinfo doc.

The texinfo doc looks most pretty when printed or as html. Indeed, in
|
|
the info version certain examples are difficult to read due to the
|
|
quoting conventions used in info.
