NAME

mcdmsdos - dmsdos tool for Midnight Commander external filesystem

SYNOPSIS

mcdmsdos mc-extfs-command args ...

i.e.

mcdmsdos list <CVF_name>

mcdmsdos copyout <CVF_name> <path/name_in_CVF> <outfile>

mcdmsdos copyin <CVF_name> <path/name_in_CVF> <infile>

DESCRIPTION

mcdmsdos represents an interface for Midnight Commander mc(1) according to the documentation of 3.0 version for external filesystems. See the Midnight Commander documentation for more information about external filesystems.

mc-extfs-command can be:

list: lists the contents of a CVF (recursively) i.e. the names of all files in the CVF are printed.

copyout: extracts a file from the CVF.

copyin: stores a file in the CVF. This is currently not yet implemented and results in an error message.

BUGS

mcdmsdos can interfere with mounted CVFs. You should not use mcdmsdos on a CVF that is currently mounted by dmsdos. This would not make any sense either.
