+.SH Description
+.PP
+The \fR\&\f(CWminfo\fR command prints the parameters of a MS-DOS file system, such
+as number of sectors, heads and cylinders. It also prints an mformat
+command line which can be used to create a similar MS-DOS file system on
+another media. However, this doesn't work with 2m or XDF media, and
+with MS-DOS 1.0 file systems

+.SH Viewing\ the\ texi\ doc
+This manpage has been automatically generated from mtools's texinfo
+documentation. However, this process is only approximative, and some
+items, such as crossreferences, footnotes and indices are lost in this
+translation process. Indeed, these items have no appropriate
+representation in the manpage format. Moreover, not all information has
+been translated into the manpage version. Thus I strongly advise you to
+use the original texinfo doc. See the end of this manpage for
+instructions how to view the texinfo doc.

+The texinfo doc looks most pretty when printed or as html. Indeed, in
