    DESCRIPTION

         Readfs reads a diskette containing a MINIX file system.  It  can  extract
         all  the  files  from  it,  give  a  listing of them, or both.  The files
         extracted can be put in  a  user-specified  directory  (default:  current
         directory).    If   subdirectories  are  needed,  they  will  be  created
         automatically.
