I'm trying to write a df like program for the PC.  PC-DOS 3.1 lets you
"join" a drive to a directory (kind of like mounting).  I'd like to find
out what drive a directory is joined to.  The DOS tech ref doesn't seem
to say how this is done.

subst works the other way around.  It makes a directory look like another
drive.  I'd like to be able to eliminate those from the df listing.

Any ideas?  I'm working in Microsoft C v3.0 (waiting for v4.0 upgrade).
