+.SH Description
+.PP
+The \fR\&\f(CWmzip\fR command is used to issue ZIP disk specific commands on
+Linux, Solaris or HP-UX. Its syntax is:
+.PP
+.ft I
+.nf
+\&\fR\&\f(CWmzip\fR [\fR\&\f(CW-epqrwx\fR]
+.fi
+.ft R
+
+.PP
+\&\fR\&\f(CWMzip\fR allows the following
+command line options:
+.TP
+\&\fR\&\f(CWe\fR\
+Ejects the disk.
+.TP
+\&\fR\&\f(CWf\fR\
+Force eject even if the disk is mounted (must be given in addition to
+\&\fR\&\f(CW-e\fR).
+.TP
+\&\fR\&\f(CWr\fR\
+Write protect the disk.
+.TP
+\&\fR\&\f(CWw\fR\
+Remove write protection.
+.TP
+\&\fR\&\f(CWp\fR\
+Password write protect.
+.TP
+\&\fR\&\f(CWx\fR\
+Password protect
+.TP
+\&\fR\&\f(CWu\fR\
+Temporarily unprotect the disk until it is ejected. The disk becomes
+writable, and reverts back to its old state when ejected.
+.TP
+\&\fR\&\f(CWq\fR\
+Queries the status
+.PP
+To remove the password, set it to one of the password-less modes
+\&\fR\&\f(CW-r\fR or \fR\&\f(CW-w\fR: mzip will then ask you for the password, and
+unlock the disk. If you have forgotten the password, you can get rid of
+it by low-level formatting the disk (using your SCSI adapter's BIOS
+setup).
+.PP
+The ZipTools disk shipped with the drive is also password protected. On
+MS-DOS or on a Mac, this password is automatically removed once the
+ZipTools have been installed. From various articles posted to Usenet, I
+learned that the password for the tools disk is
+\&\fR\&\f(CWAPlaceForYourStuff\fR\fR. Mzip knows about this
+password, and tries it first, before prompting you for a password. Thus
+\&\fR\&\f(CWmzip -w z:\fR unlocks the tools disk. The tools disk is
+formatted in a special way so as to be usable both in a PC and in a Mac.
+On a PC, the Mac file system appears as a hidden file named
+\&\fR\&\f(CW\(ifpartishn.mac\(is\fR. You may erase it to reclaim the 50 Megs of space
+taken up by the Mac file system.
+.PP
+.SH Bugs
+.PP
+This command is a big kludge. A proper implementation would take a
+rework of significant parts of mtools, but unfortunately I don't have
+the time for this right now. The main downside of this implementation is
+that it is inefficient on some architectures (several successive calls
+to mtools, which defeats mtools' caching).

+.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.
