You need Mtools...  Below is the 'Readme' file from the AT&T Unix PC
distribution.  Mtools has beeen posted to The Store!, comp.unix.sources,
and unix-pc.sources.  If you cannot get the source from a neighboring
site, send me a note and I'll mail the source to you.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is a collection of MSDOS tools to allow you to read and write to
MSDOS formatted diskettes from your AT&T Unix PC 7300.  These commands
are intended to replace the 'md_write' and 'msdos' commands that run 
under the User Agent.

Mtools offers a significant advantage over the programs supplied with
your PC 7300.  For example, you can copy several files (or and entire
diskette) with a single command, rather than the UA way of high lighting
and clicking each file one at a time.  The tools closely emulate MSDOS
so that you don't have to learn another command interpreter... you can
just close your eyes, pretend you're on a MSDOS machine, and everything
will work as you'd expect.

The following MSDOS commands are emulated:

Mtool 		MSDOS
name		equivalent	Description
-----		----		-----------
mdel		DEL/ERASE	delete a MSDOS file
mdir		DIR		display a MSDOS directory
mmd		MD/MKDIR	make a MSDOS sub directory
mrd		RD/RMDIR	remove a MSDOS sub directory
mread		COPY		read (copy) a MSDOS file to Unix
mren		REN/RENAME	rename an existing MSDOS file
mtype		TYPE		display contents of a MSDOS file
mwrite		COPY		write (copy) a Unix file to MSDOS
*		CD		change working directory

	* by use of an environmental variable
