NAME

getmountpoint - print the mountpoint of the current working directory

 

SYNOPSIS

edrc/lib/getmountpoint

 

AVAILABILITY

WA2L/edrc

 

DESCRIPTION

With getmountpoint the mount point is printed where the current working directory is located on.

This output is basically identical to: 


df -k . | awk 'END{print $6}'    # Solaris, Linux
bdf . | awk 'END{print $6}'      # HP-UX
xbdf . | awk 'END{print $6}'     # all
but is much faster especially if there are large file systems on HP-UX.
