16 _\bM_\bt_\ba_\bb resides in directory /_\be_\bt_\bc and contains a table of dev-
17 ices mounted by the _\bm_\bo_\bu_\bn_\bt command. _\bU_\bm_\bo_\bu_\bn_\bt removes entries.
18
19 The table is a series of _\bm_\bt_\ba_\bb structures, as defined in
20 <mtab.h>. Each entry contains the null-padded name of the
21 place where the special file is mounted, the null-padded
22 name of the special file, and a type field, one of those
23 defined in <_\bf_\bs_\bt_\ba_\bb._\bh>. The special file has all its direc-
24 tories stripped away; that is, everything through the last
25 `/' is thrown away. The type field indicates if the file
26 system is mounted read-only, read-write, or read-write with
27 disk quotas enabled.
28
29 This table is present only so people can look at it. It
30 does not matter to _\bm_\bo_\bu_\bn_\bt if there are duplicated entries nor
31 to _\bu_\bm_\bo_\bu_\bn_\bt if a name cannot be found.
