i learned this in MCSE class
F:\>convert /?
Converts FAT volumes to NTFS.

CONVERT volume /FS:NTFS [/V]

volume Specifies the drive letter (followed by a colon),
mount point, or volume name.
/FS:NTFS Specifies that the volume to be converted to NTFS.
/V Specifies that Convert should be run in verbose mode.

Verbose tells the command to output extra information while it's doing it's job. It's very common to see that on UNIX commands (usually -v).
