.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Fd #include <disktab.h>
.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Nm Disktab
is a simple database which describes disk geometries and
disk partition characteristics.
It is used
.\"by the formatter(\c
.\"IR.Xr format 8 )
.\"to determine how to format the disk, and
to initialize the disk label on the disk.
The format is patterned
after the
.Xr termcap 5
terminal data base.  Entries in 
.Nm disktab
consist of a number of `:' separated fields.  The
first entry for each disk gives the names which are
known for the disk, separated by `|' characters.  The
last name given should be a long name fully identifying
the disk. 
.Pp
The following list indicates the normal values
stored for each disk entry.
