is a command-line tool to easily manage removable media.

configuration file
at either

udisks2
udisks2
is recommended, so that regular users can manage removable media
without sudo. By default, udisks2
is auto-detected, but you can force use

Configuration
bashmount
works fine without a configuration file, but there's some neat
things you can do.
Have a look at the example configuration file.
- Open your desired file manager at the mountpoint of a device. (The default is to open in your terminal.)
- Hide certain devices from the list.
- Configure custom commands to run on removable devices.
- Automatically run custom commands after a mount or unmount.
