-.SH Description
-.PP
-The \fR\&\f(CWmcat\fR command is used to copy an entire disk image from or
-to the floppy device. It uses the following syntax:
-.PP
-\&\fR\&\f(CWmcat\fR [\fR\&\f(CW-w\fR] \fIdrive\fR\fR\&\f(CW:\fR
-.iX "p mcat"
-.iX "c Copying an entire disk image"
-.iX "c Disk image"
-.iX "c Floppyd cat"
-.PP
-\&\fR\&\f(CWMcat\fR performs the same task as the Unix \fR\&\f(CWcat\fR command. It
-is included into the mtools package, since \fR\&\f(CWcat\fR cannot access
-remote floppy devices offered by the mtools floppy daemon.
-Now it is possible to create boot floppies remotely.
-.PP
-The default operation is reading. The output is written to stdout.
-.PP
-If the \fR\&\f(CW-w\fR option is specified, mcat reads a disk-image from
-stdin and writes it to the given device.
-\&\fBUse this carefully!\fR Because of the low-level nature of this
-command, it will happily destroy any data written before on the
-disk without warning!

-.SH 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.
