*Mount

Use

This *Command prepares a disc for general use.

Syntax

*Mount [disc_spec ]
*Mount [:]disc_spec (netFS syntax)

Parameters

disc_spec Name of disc or number of disc drive

Notes

A disc is prepared for general use by the current directory to its root directory, setting the library directory (if it is currently unset) to $.Library, and unsetting the User Root Directory.

For NetFS, Mount selects a disc from the file server by setting the current directory, the library directory and the User Root Directory.

This command performs exactly the same function as *SDisc.
