   I am having a problem trying to use the 'mwrite' command to
   write files to a DOS floppy.  I have tried the following without
   any luck:

   mwrite test.gif "a:test.gif"
   mwrite test.gif "A:TEST.GIF"
   mwrite test.gif "A:\"
   mwrite test.gif A:

   Am I totally missing the boat here?  I couldn't find any man pages
   for mwrite.  Do any exist?

There is a whole set of man pages in in
/usr/src/othersrc/public/mtools-2.0.5/man/man1.  Rich

   thanks..
