mwrite

mwrite(1)						      General Commands Manual							 mwrite(1)

NAME

       mwrite - mtools utility to perform a low level write (copy) of a UNIX file to DOS

SYNOPSIS

       mwrite [-mntv] unixfile msdosfile

       mwrite [-mntv] unixfile [unixfiles...] [msdosdirectory]

OPTIONS

       Preserves  the  file  modification time.  Specifies that a warning is not issued when an existing file is specified as the target file.	If
       this option is not specified, the mwrite command verifies whether or not to overwrite an existing file.	Specifies a  text  file  transfer.
       Line  terminators  are  converted  to  the  appropriate	format.  Specifies verbose mode.  Displays the new file name if the UNIX file name
       requires conversion.

DESCRIPTION

       The mwrite command copies the specified UNIX file to the named DOS file, or copies multiple UNIX files to the  named  DOS  directory.   The
       destination  directory  cannot  be omitted. Reasonable care is taken to create a valid DOS file name.  If an invalid name is specified, the
       mwrite command changes the name, then displays the new name if the -v option is specified.

       DOS subdirectory names that contain the '/' or '' separator are supported.  If you use the '' separator or wildcards,	you  must  enclose
       file names in quotes to protect them from the shell.

       The mcd command can be used to establish the device and the current working directory (relative to DOS), otherwise the default is A:.

       Not  all UNIX file names are supported in the DOS world.  The mwrite command may have to change UNIX names to fit the DOS file name conven-
       tions. The following table shows some examples of file name conversions:

       -----------------------------------------------
       UNIX name     DOS name	Reason for the change
       -----------------------------------------------
       thisisatest   THISISAT	file name too long
       file.stuff    FILE.STU	extension too long
       prn.txt	     XRN.TXT	PRN is a device name
       .abc	     X.ABC	null file name
       hot+cold      HOTXCOLD	illegal character
       -----------------------------------------------

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned: Success.  Failure.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       The following environment variables affect the execution of mwrite: If set, this variable names the file that contains the name of the cur-
       rent mtools working directory as established by the mcd command.  If this variable is not set, the file $HOME/.mcwd is used.

FILES

       Contains  the  name  of	the  current mtools working directory as established by the mcd command.  If this file does not exist, the default
       mtools working directory is A:.  Executable file
