       mdu - display the amount of space occupied by an MSDOS directory

Note of warning

       This  manpage  has  been  automatically  generated  from  mtools's  texinfo documentation, and may not be
       entirely accurate or complete.  See the end of this man page for details.

Description

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

       mdu [-a] [ msdosfiles ... ]

       a      All files.  List also the space occupied for individual files.

       s      Only list the total space, don't give details for each subdirectory.

Viewing the texi doc

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

       *      To generate a printable copy from the texinfo doc, run the following commands:

                     ./configure; make dvi; dvips mtools.dvi

       *      To generate a html copy,  run:

                     ./configure; make html

       A premade html can be found at `http://www.gnu.org/software/mtools/manual/mtools.html'

       *      To generate an info copy (browsable using emacs' info mode), run:

                     ./configure; make info

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