Go to the first, previous, next, last section, table of contents.
Global variables may be set to 1 or to 0.
The following global flags are recognized:
MTOOLS_SKIP_CHECK
-
If this is set to 1, mtools skips most of its sanity checks. This is
needed to read some Atari disks which have been made with the earlier
ROMs, and which would not be recognized otherwise.
MTOOLS_FAT_COMPATIBILITY
-
If this is set to 1, mtools skips the fat size checks. Some disks have
a bigger FAT than they really need to. These are rejected if this
option is not set.
MTOOLS_LOWER_CASE
-
If this is set to 1, mtools displays all-upper-case short filenames as
lowercase. This has been done to allow a behavior which is consistent
with older versions of mtools which didn't know about the case bits.
MTOOLS_NO_VFAT
-
If this is set to 1, mtools won't generate VFAT entries for filenames
which are mixed-case, but otherwise legal dos filenames. This is useful
when working with DOS versions which can't grok VFAT longnames, such as
Caldera's FreeDos.
Example:
Inserting the following line into your configuration file instructs
mtools to skip the sanity checks:
MTOOLS_SKIP_CHECK=1
Global variables may also be set via the environment:
export MTOOLS_SKIP_CHECK=1
