DESCRIPTION

     Dosdir reads standard IBM PC diskettes or hard  disk  parti-
     tions  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 see-
     ing how it was called.  A drive code of A causes the program
     to  use  /dev/dosA,  for example, a link to /dev/fd0.  Simi-
     larly, 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.
