NAME
     affcat - Output contents of an image file to stdout.

SYNOPSIS
     affcat [options] image [images]

DESCRIPTION
     affcat  outputs  the contents of an image file to stdout.	Image files that
     are not raw but are recognized by AFF will be output in raw format. Missing
     pages will not be padded, but the fact that they are missing will be  noted
     on STDERR.

     The options are as follows:

     -s nameOutput  the  named segment, instead of the image data. This is a way
	    to output metadata.

     -p nnn Just output page number nnn

     -S nnn Just output data sector number nnn.  Sector #0 is the first sector.

     -q     Quiet mode. Don't print to STDERR if a page is skipped because it is
	    not present.

     -n     Noisy mode. Tell when pages are skipped.

     -l     List all the segment names, rather than outputting data.

     -L     List Long. Prints segment names, lengths, and args.

     -d     Debug mode. Print the page numbers to stderr as data goes to stdout.

     -b     Output BADFALG for bad blocks (default is to output NULLs).

     -v     Just print the version number and exit.

     -r offset:count
	    Seek to the given byte offset and output count  characters	in  each
	    file; may be repeated.

HISTORY
     affcat first appeared in AFFLIB v1.00.
