+.SH Description
+.PP
+The \fR\&\f(CWmcd\fR command is used to change the mtools working directory
+on the MS-DOS disk. It uses the following syntax:
+.PP
+
+.nf
+.ft 3
+.in +0.3i
+\&\fR\&\f(CWmcd [\fImsdosdirectory\fR\&\f(CW]
+.fi
+.in -0.3i
+.ft R
+.PP
+
+\&\fR
+.PP
+Without arguments, \fR\&\f(CWmcd\fR reports the current device and working
+directory. Otherwise, \fR\&\f(CWmcd\fR changes the current device and current
+working directory relative to an MS-DOS file system.
+.PP
+The environmental variable \fR\&\f(CWMCWD\fR may be used to locate the file
+where the device and current working directory information is stored.
+The default is \fR\&\f(CW\(if$HOME/.mcwd\(is\fR. Information in this file is ignored
+if the file is more than 6 hours old.
+.PP
+\&\fR\&\f(CWMcd\fR returns 0 on success or 1 on failure.
+.PP
+Unlike MS-DOS versions of \fR\&\f(CWCD\fR, \fR\&\f(CWmcd\fR can be used to change to
+another device. It may be wise to remove old \fR\&\f(CW\(if.mcwd\(is\fR files at logout.

+.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
+the info version certain examples are difficult to read due to the
+quoting conventions used in info.
