DESCRIPTION
Dosdir reads standard IBM PC diskettes or hard disk partitions in MS-DOS
format and lists their contents on standard output. Directory names
should contain slashes to separate components, even though MS-DOS uses
backslashes. The names dosdir , dosread , and doswrite are all links to
the same program. The program sees which function to perform by seeing
how it was called. A drive code of A causes the program to use
/dev/dosA, for example, a link to /dev/fd0. Similarly, to have hard disk
partition 1 be DOS drive C, /dev/dosC could be a link to /dev/hd1, and so
on for other drive codes. A normal device name may also be used instead
of a drive code.
