Re: mcopy

Tru64 version? mtools version?

"man mtools":

[...]
All mtools require a floppy diskette properly installed on the system. All
mtools facilities address a device named /dev/disk/floppy. You must create
a symbolic link between the diskette's device special files and the file
/dev/disk/floppy, depending on what type of diskette drive is on your sys-
tem. See the EXAMPLES section for information on how you set up the
diskette drive.
[...]

Sone versions may also read a configuration
file, such as /usr/local/etc/mtools.conf or
/etc/default/mtools.conf, and/or an
initialization file, ~/.mtoolsrc, or what
MTOOLSRC is set to.
