[1mNAME
     [0mwradfs - write adfs micro diskettes.

[1mSYNOPSIS
     wradfs [0m[ [1m-fiFaR [0m] [ [1m-D[0m_c_h_a_r ] [ [1m-t[0mtitle ] [ [1m-n[0mname ] [ [1m-b[0mn ]
     [ [1m-d[0mdirectory ] [ [1m-F [0m] [ files ]

[1mDESCRIPTION
     [0m_W_r_a_d_f_s writes a set of files to an [1madfs [0mdiskette.

     By default the files are written to the root directory, and
     the diskette is assumed to be already formatted and initial-
     ised to an [1madfs [0mfile structure. Files of the same name are
     overwritten unless they are marked read-only, in which case
     confirmation is requested.

     The argument [1m-R [0mcauses UNIX directory names in the list of
     arguments to be recursively copied with their contents and
     subdirectories to the [1madfs [0mfile structure. Without this
     option directory names are assumed to be errors and cause
     diagnostics to be printed.

     The argument [1m-a [0mcauses the amount of free space left on the
     disc to be displayed after the files have been copied.

     The argument [1m-i [0mcauses the information already on the
     diskette to be discarded and a new [1madfs [0mstructure to be
     created.

     The argument [1m-f [0mcauses the diskette to be formatted before
     anything is written.  This option implies the [1m-i [0moption.
     Confirmation is requested before proceeding.

     The [1m-F [0moption suppresses confirmation messages and implies
     an affirmative answer in every case.

     The argument [1m-n[0mname causes the disc name to be set to that
     specified.  If this argument is not present a disc name is
     created from the time and day of initialisation (e.g.
     20_54_Fri).

     The argument [1m-t[0mtitle causes the title field in the root
     directory to be set to or replaced by the specified title.
     If no title is specified the title "Initialised by Unix" is
     used.

     The argument [1m-b[0mnumber causes the boot option to be set or
     reset to the specified number.

     The [1m-d [0moption specifies a directory other than the root
     directory which is created if necessary to which the files
     (and subdirectories created by the [1m-R [0moption) are written.

     The same notation as with adfsls is used to specify direc-
     tories.

     The [1m-T[0mddd option, with up to 3 hexadecimal digits may be
     used to specify an ADFS file type other than the default of
     FFF.

     Each file name may be preceded by [1m-l[0mnumber and/or by
     [1m-e[0mnumber.	These flags cause the following file and each
     subsequent file up to the next such flag to have the load or
     execution address set to the specified hexadecimal number.
     If no such flags are given the load and execution addresses
     are set from the modification date of each file and the ADFS
     file type. If only one of these flags is given, then the
     other one is taken to be zero.

     Fullstops in file or directory names are replaced by minus
     signs, unless the [1m-D[0m_c_h_a_r option is specified, which causes
     the fullstops to be replaced by the specified character
     instead.

     The write bit is not set on files copied from read-only UNIX
     files.

     Filenames longer than 10 characters are truncated.
