3.1.18 Mounting/unmounting file systems
People dealing with lots of files usually need to save/restore/copy
files from/to other file systems. In order to be more efficient,
gitfm
provides a set of key bindings for mounting and unmounting
file systems. See section The GNUIT mount utility, for more information.
The default key bindings set has been designed to work under
Linux
, but it can be easily changed for other UNIX
systems
with different device names. Reading the configuration file
‘gnuitrc.common’ should be enough. See section Hot Keys, for more
information.
As a convention, the ‘/mnt’ directory is used to store an empty
subdirectory for each mountable file system. Each file system is
actually mounted in its counterpart ‘/mnt’ subdirectory. Try to
follow this convention since the gitmount
script is heavily based
on it. See section Customizing GNU Interactive Tools, for more information.
ESC m a
| Call mount (1) in order to mount the first floppy
(‘/dev/fd0’) in the ‘/mnt/fd0’ directory (‘MOUNT-A’).
|
ESC m b
| Call mount (1) in order to mount the second floppy
(‘/dev/fd1’) in the ‘/mnt/fd1’ directory (‘MOUNT-B’).
|
ESC m c
| Call mount (1) in order to mount the cdrom
(‘/dev/cdrom’) in the ‘/mnt/cdrom’ directory (‘MOUNT-CDROM’).
|
ESC m f
| Call mount (1) in order to mount the first floppy
(‘/dev/fd0’) in the ‘/mnt/floppy’ directory (‘MOUNT-FLOPPY’).
|
ESC m z
| Call mount (1) in order to mount the zip drive
(‘/dev/zip’) in the ‘/mnt/zip’ directory (‘MOUNT-ZIP’).
|
ESC m j
| Call mount (1) in order to mount the jaz drive
(‘/dev/jaz’) in the ‘/mnt/jaz’ directory (‘MOUNT-JAZ’).
|
ESC m t
| Call mount (1) in order to mount the file systems corresponding to
the selected subdirectories. For example, if you are in the ‘/mnt’
directory and the ‘cdrom’ and ‘zip’ subdirectories are
selected, the cdrom and the zip disk will be mounted (‘MOUNT-THESE’).

ESC r a
| Call umount (1) in order to remove (unmount) the first floppy
(‘/dev/fd0’) (‘UMOUNT-A’).
|
ESC r b
| Call umount (1) in order to remove (unmount) the second floppy
(‘/dev/fd1’) (‘UMOUNT-B’).
|
ESC r c
| Call umount (1) in order to remove (unmount) the cdrom
(‘/dev/cdrom’) (‘UMOUNT-CDROM’).
|
findex UMOUNT-CDROM
ESC r f
| Call umount (1) in order to remove (unmount) the first floppy
(‘/dev/fd0’) (‘UMOUNT-FLOPPY’).
|
ESC r z
| Call umount (1) in order to remove (unmount) the zip drive
(‘/dev/zip’) (‘UMOUNT-ZIP’).
|
ESC r j
| Call umount (1) in order to remove (unmount) the jaz drive
(‘/dev/jaz’) (‘UMOUNT-JAZ’).
|
ESC r t
| Call umount (1) in order to remove (unmount) the file systems
mounted into the selected subdirectories. For example, if the current
directory is ‘/mnt’ and the ‘cdrom’ and ‘zip’
subdirectories are selected, the cdrom and the zip disk will be
unmounted (‘UMOUNT-THESE’).
