Amount is an alternative to typing mount/umount commands or using the automounter. It mounts all the partitions mentioned in a command line, runs the command, and then unmounts them again. It knows about shell wildcards.

Usage:

Just stick 'amount' on the front of your command line, for example:

amount ls /mnt/floppy/*.txt

If the shell can't glob the *.txt then amount will try again after /mnt/floppy has been mounted.

Installation:

Run "./install --prefix=/usr/local" or whatever directory you want.

What's New in This Release:
README: Spelling.
amount: Handle comments in fstab and mtab files.
amount: Indentation.
