- o NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION
-
- The VOLUME utility writes a file to an archive, and breaks the
- file into multiple volumes if the disk capacity of a single
- volume is exceeded. VOLUME also reads an archive from a device,
- and the archive may be contained on multiple removable media.
- The volume name must be specified without an extension as VOLUME
- will append an extension to indicate the volume number.
-
- Output mode:
-
- If any files are contained on the removable media, they will not
- be affected in any way. VOLUME uses the DOS file system on the
- media instead of raw data transfer, allowing the storage of
- other files on the media.
-
- The first volume will contain the files, <name> and <name>.1,
- where <name> is the name you have chosen for the archive. The
- next volume will contain <name>.2, and so forth. The last
- volume will contain <name>.n and <name>.0, where n is the last
- volume number and <name>.0 is an empty file signifying that this
- volume contains the last piece of the archive.
-
- Input mode:
-
- The volumes need to be read in the order they were created.
