.SH NAME
.LP
\fBparrot_mount\fP - mount new directories inside of a Parrot instance.

.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
\FC\fBparrot_mount <path> <destination> <permissions>\fP\FT

.SH DESCRIPTION
.LP
\FCparrot_mount\FT utilizes \fBParrot\fP system calls to change the namespace
of the parrot filesystem while it is running.  New mount points can be
added with read, write, or execute permissions, and existing mount points
can be removed.  The namespace can be locked down with the \FC--disable\FT
option, which prevents any further changes in the current session.

.TP
.B \ --disable
.
 Disable any further mounting/unmounting in this parrot session.
