.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBfcat\fP opens the named \fBimage\fP(s) and copies the file at the path \fIpath_of_file\fP to standard output.
.SH ARGUMENTS
.TP
.B
\fB-f\fP \fIfstype\fP
Specifies the file system type. Use \fB-f\fP 'list' to list the supported file system types. If not given,
autodetection methods are used.
.TP
.B
\fB-h\fP
Skip over holes in sparse files, so that absolute address information is lost. This option saves
space when copying sparse files.
.TP
.B
\fB-R\fP
Suppress errors if a deleted file is being recovered.
.TP
.B
\fB-s\fP
Include the slack space in the output.
.TP
.B
\fB-i\fP \fIimgtype\fP
Identify the type of \fIimage\fP file, such as raw. Use '\fB-i\fP list' to list the supported types. If not given,
autodetection methods are used.
.TP
.B
\fB-o\fP \fIimgoffset\fP
The sector offset where the file system starts in the \fIimage\fP.
.TP
.B
\fB-b\fP \fIdev_sector_size\fP
The size, in bytes, of the underlying device sectors. If not given, the value in the \fIimage\fP
format is used (if it exists) or 512-bytes is assumed.
.TP
.B
\fB-v\fP
Enable verbose mode, output to stderr.
.TP
.B
\fB-V\fP
Display version 
.TP
.B
\fIimage\fP [\fIimages\fP]
The disk or partition \fIimage\fP to read, whose format is given with '\fB-i\fP'. Multiple \fIimage\fP file names can
be given if the \fIimage\fP is split into multiple segments. If only one \fIimage\fP file is given, and its name
is the first in a sequence (e.g., as indicated by ending in ’.001’), subsequent \fIimage\fP segments will
be included automatically.
.TP
.B
\fIpath_of_file\fP
Path of file to extract the contents of. Surround the path in quotes if there is a space in a file or
directory name. Use forward slashes.
