It does this for Joliet too. AFAIK, he idea is letting the admin knows
what format was recognized/mounted, and this is the wrong solution,

portable way of doing it, be my guest.

<jkh> _DES: The Book of Bruce has only one sentence in it, and it says
"the actual directives of my cult are left as an exercise for the
reader. Good luck."
<EE> jkh: does it really include the 'good luck' part?
<jkh> EE: OK, I made that part up.
<jkh> EE: I figured it should sound a bit more cheery than how Bruce
initially dictated it to me.
