mkmanifest [files]

Create a list of filenames and their DOS 8.3 equivalents in the form of a series of mv commands. By default, the output is written to standard output; to create a shell script, redirect the output to a file. Useful if you use mcopy to move the files to an MS-DOS diskette, and you want to be able to later restore them to a Linux system. Files with names that already fit into the 8.3 format are not written to the manifest. See mtools for more information.
