	I have written a program in Lattice C to create or change the internal
label of a disk. That is, you can change the "volume label" of the disk without
reformatting. It uses the Lattice-dependent call "bdos", which loads AL and DX
with its arguments, then executes an INT 21, returning the result code as the
value of the function call. This is extremely useful, and if your C doesn't
have it you might want to write one for it.
	In any case, someone expressed an interest in this program a while ago,
and I think it might be of general use anyway, so I have posted the source in
net.sources, along with a man page (done with WordStar, not Nroff).
