 4.16 Mlabel
 ===========
 
 The `mlabel' command adds a volume label to a disk. Its syntax is:
      `mlabel' [`-vcsn'] [`-N' SERIAL] DRIVE:[NEW_LABEL]
 
    `Mlabel' displays the current volume label, if present. If NEW_LABEL
 is not given, and if neither the `c' nor the `s' options are set, it
 prompts the user for a new volume label.  To delete an existing volume
 label, press return at the prompt.
 
    The label is limited to 11 single-byte characters, e.g.
 `Name1234567'.
 
    Reasonable care is taken to create a valid MS-DOS volume label.  If
 an invalid label is specified, `mlabel' changes the label (and displays
 the new label if the verbose mode is set). `Mlabel' returns 0 on
 success or 1 on failure.
 
    Mlabel supports the following options:
 `c'
      Clears an existing label, without prompting the user
 
 `s'
      Shows the existing label, without prompting the user.
 
 `n'
      Assigns a new (random) serial number to the disk
 
 `N SERIAL'
      Sets the supplied serial number. The serial number should be
      supplied as an 8 digit hexadecimal number, without spaces
