Command: dosread - read a file from an MS-DOS diskette [IBM]
Syntax: dosread [-a] drive file
Flags: -a ASCII file
Examples: dosread C g/adv >adv # Read file g/adv from hard disk
dosread -a A prog.c >x # Read ASCII file prog.c from drive
A
Dosread reads one MS-DOS file and writes it on standard output.
The file name must use slash, not backslash as a separator. ASCII files
have the final CTRL-Z stripped, and carriage return plus line feed are
mapped to line feed only, the usual MINIX convention. See dosdir on the
use of single letter drive codes.
