Description

16       Mdu  is used to list the space occupied by a directory, its subdirecto‐
17       ries and its files. It is similar to the du command on Unix.  The  unit
18       used are clusters.  Use the minfo command to find out the cluster size.

Viewing the texi doc

31       This manpage has been automatically  generated  from  mtools's  texinfo
32       documentation.  However,  this  process is only approximative, and some
33       items, such as crossreferences, footnotes and indices are lost in  this
34       translation process.  Indeed, these items have no appropriate represen‐
35       tation in the manpage format.  Moreover, not all information  has  been
36       translated into the manpage version.  Thus I strongly advise you to use
37       the original texinfo doc.  See the end of this manpage for instructions
38       how to view the texinfo doc.

40       *      To  generate a printable copy from the texinfo doc, run the fol‐
41              lowing commands:
42
43                     ./configure; make dvi; dvips mtools.dvi
44
45
46
47       *      To generate a html copy,  run:
48
49                     ./configure; make html

51       A premade html can be found at `http://www.gnu.org/software/mtools/man‐
52       ual/mtools.html'
53
54       *      To  generate  an  info  copy (browsable using emacs' info mode),
55              run:
56
57                     ./configure; make info

61       The texinfo doc looks most pretty when printed or as html.  Indeed,  in
62       the  info  version  certain  examples  are difficult to read due to the
63       quoting conventions used in info.
