.SH Description
|

|
.PP

The \fR\&\f(CWmlabel\fR command adds a volume label to a disk. Its syntax is:
|
||
|
|
.ft I
|
||
|
|
.nf
|
||
|
|
\&\fR\&\f(CWmlabel\fR [\fR\&\f(CW-vcsn\fR] [\fR\&\f(CW-N\fR \fIserial\fR] \fIdrive\fR:[\fInew_label\fR]
|
||
|
|
.fi
|
||
|
|
.ft R
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
\&\fR\&\f(CWMlabel\fR displays the current volume label, if present. If
|
||
|
|
\&\fInew_label\fR is not given, and if neither the \fR\&\f(CWc\fR nor the
|
||
|
|
\&\fR\&\f(CWs\fR options are set, it prompts the user for a new volume label.
|
||
|
|
To delete an existing volume label, press return at the prompt.
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
The label is limited to 11 single-byte characters,
|
||
|
|
e.g. \fR\&\f(CWName1234567\fR.
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
Reasonable care is taken to create a valid MS-DOS volume label. If an
|
||
|
|
invalid label is specified, \fR\&\f(CWmlabel\fR changes the label (and
|
||
|
|
displays the new label if the verbose mode is set). \fR\&\f(CWMlabel\fR
|
||
|
|
returns 0 on success or 1 on failure.
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
Mlabel supports the following options:
|

|
|
.TP

\&\fR\&\f(CWc\fR\

Clears an existing label, without prompting the user
|

.TP

\&\fR\&\f(CWs\fR\

Shows the existing label, without prompting the user.
|
||
|

.TP
|

\&\fR\&\f(CWn\ \fR\

|
|
.TP
|

|
|
\&\fR\&\f(CWN\ \fIserial\fR\&\f(CW\fR\
|
||
|

Sets the supplied serial number. The serial number should be supplied as
|
||
|
|
an 8 digit hexadecimal number, without spaces

.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.
