DISKARBITRATIOND(8) BSD System Manager's Manual DISKARBITRATIOND(8)NAME
diskarbitrationd -- disk arbitration daemon
SYNOPSIS
diskarbitrationd [-d]
DESCRIPTION
diskarbitrationd listens for connections from clients, notifies clients of the appearance of disks and filesystems, and governs the mounting
of filesystems and the claiming of disks amongst clients.
diskarbitrationd is accessed via the Disk Arbitration framework. This command is not intended to be invoked directly.
Options:
-d Report detailed information in /var/log/diskarbitrationd.log.
The file /etc/fstab is consulted for user-defined mount points, indexed by filesystem, in the mount point determination for a filesystem.
Each filesystem can be identified by its UUID or by its label, using the constructs ``UUID'' or ``LABEL'', respectively. For example:
UUID=DF000C7E-AE0C-3B15-B730-DFD2EF15CB91 /export ufs ro
UUID=FAB060E9-79F7-33FF-BE85-E1D3ABD3EDEA none hfs rw,noauto
LABEL=The 40Volume 40Name 40Is 40This none msdos ro

MSDOS.UTIL(8) BSD System Manager's Manual MSDOS.UTIL(8)NAME
msdos.util -- DOS/Windows (FAT) file system utility
SYNOPSIS
msdos.util -m mountflag1 mountflag2 mountflag3 mountflag4 device node
msdos.util -p mountflag1 mountflag2 mountflag3 mountflag4 device
msdos.util -u device
msdos.util -k device
msdos.util -n device name
DESCRIPTION
The msdos.util command supports the mounting, probing, and unmounting of FAT file systems.
Options:
-m mountflag1 mountflag2 mountflag3 mountflag4
mount
-n set name
-p mountflag1 mountflag2 mountflag3 mountflag4
probe for mounting
-u unmount
-k print volume UUID
mountflags above are either:
o removable or fixed
o readonly or writeable
o suid or nosuid
o dev or nodev
FAT volumes do not actually have a volume UUID. They have an optional 4-byte volume ID. If a volume has an ID, then it will be converted to
a version 3 UUID using MD5 to checksum the kFSUUIDNamespaceSHA1 UUID folowed by the volume ID.
For the -k option, if the volume has a volume ID, the exit status will be 253 and the UUID will be printed to standard out, without any
trailing newline. Otherwise, if the volume appears to be FAT, the exit status will be 255. If the volume does not appear to be FAT, the
exit status will be 254.

What is the point of this? Whenever I close my shell it appends to the history file without adding this. I have never seen it overwrite my history file.

Greetings,
I'm trying to delete a file with a weird name from within Terminal on a Mac.
It's a very old file (1992) with null characters in the name: ââWord FinderÂŽ Plusâ˘.
Here are some examples of what I've tried:

Hi all...
Well guys and gals, I jumped in at the deep end and found things that PERL cannot do by default.
Many tricky terminal escape codes are not catered for so I had to create workarounds.
One thing I searched for was this:

Well, guys I saw a question about GOTO for Python.
So this gave me the inspiration to attempt a GOTO function for 'dash', (bash and ksh too).

This is purely a fun project to see if it is possible in PURE... (3 Replies)
