.SH NAME
fcat \- Output the contents of a file based on its name.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B fcat [-hRsvV] [-f
.I fstype
.B ] [-i
.I imgtype
.B ] [-o 
.I imgoffset
.B ] [-b dev_sector_size] 
.I path_of_file image [images] 
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B fcat
opens the named 
.I image(s)
and copies the file at the path
.I path_of_file
to standard output.

.SH ARGUMENTS
.IP "-f fstype"
Specifies the file system type.  
Use '\-f list' to list the supported file system types.
If not given, autodetection methods are used.
.IP -h
Skip over holes in sparse files, so that absolute address information
is lost. This option saves space when copying sparse files.
.IP -R
Supress errors if a deleted file is being recovered.
.IP -s
Include the slack space in the output.
.IP "-i imgtype"
Identify the type of image file, such as raw.
Use '\-i list' to list the supported types.
If not given, autodetection methods are used.
.IP "-o imgoffset"
The sector offset where the file system starts in the image.  
.IP "-b dev_sector_size"
The size, in bytes, of the underlying device sectors.  If not given, the value in the image format is used (if it exists) or 512-bytes is assumed.
.IP -v
Enable verbose mode, output to stderr.
.IP -V
Display version
.IP "image [images]"
The disk or partition image to read, whose format is given with '\-i'.
Multiple image file names can be given if the image is split into multiple segments.
If only one image file is given, and its name is the first in a sequence (e.g., as indicated by ending in '.001'), subsequent image segments will be included automatically.
.IP path_of_file
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.
