My very personal use-case suggests this behaviour: if the device has a label, use that (/mnt/label), otherwise the block device name for brevity. If I don't know whatever I plugged in, I would ls whatever there is. Or run blkid. Probably though, being a tool that would work independently from file managers and DEs, the UUID would be a better choice, because `ls /mnt` would be everything you need to inspect whatever is mounted. _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list [email protected] https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
