dnum (1) --- generate or interpret legal disk numbers    03/20/80


            _U_s_a_g_e

                 dnum [<disk_number>]


            _D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n

                 If  given  a disk number as an argument, 'dnum' will print a
                 short  description  of  the  corresponding  disk   partition
                 (controller type, number of heads, first head number, etc.).
                 If  the argument is missing, 'dnum' will prompt the user for
                 the required information and generate the corresponding disk
                 number.


            _E_x_a_m_p_l_e_s

                 dnum 21060
                 Controller 4004 storage module disk
                    controller 0, unit 0
                    first head: 4, number of heads: 4

                 Many; 'dnum' is interactive.


            _B_u_g_s

                 When given a cartridge module disk number  as  an  argument,
                 'dnum'  always  considers  it  a  storage  module  and gives
                 incorrect results for the fixed surfaces.
