FTIMES-MAP2MAC(1)	      FTimes Documentation	       FTIMES-MAP2MAC(1)

NAME
     ftimes-map2mac.pl - Create MAC/MACH timelines using FTimes map data

SYNOPSIS
     ftimes-map2mac.pl {-e|--extsort} [-d] [-m] [-q] [-r] [-s file] [-T dir]
     [-w] -f {file|-}

     ftimes-map2mac.pl {-i|--intsort} [-d] [-m] [-q] [-r] [-w] -f {file|-}

DESCRIPTION
     This utility takes FTimes map data as input and produces a MAC or MACH
     timeline as output. The letters M, A, and C, have the usual meanings --
     i.e., mtime, atime, and ctime. The H in MACH stands for chtime which is
     NTFS specific. Output is written to stdout and has the following format:

	 datetime|mac/mach|name

     Two sorting methods are supported: external and internal. The internal
     sorting method constructs timelines entirely within core memory. While this
     method is self-contained, its effectiveness deteriorates as the amount of
     data increases. The external sorting method, on the other hand, requires an
     external sort utility, but it is generally faster and can handle large data
     sets more effectively.  The external sorting method was designed to work
     with GNU sort.

OPTIONS
     -d  Enables URL decoding of filenames.

     -f {file|-}
	 Specifies the name of the input file. A value of '-' will cause the
	 program to read from stdin.

     -m  Causes milliseconds to be included in the timeline. This option is spe-
	 cific to WINX map data, and it is silently ignored if "-w" is not spec-
	 ified also.

     -q  Don't report errors (i.e., be quiet) while processing files.

     -r  Causes timeline to be output in reverse time order.

     -s file
	 Specifies the name of an alternate sort utility. Relative paths are af-
	 fected by your PATH environment variable. Alternate sort utilities must
	 support the "-r", "-T", and "-u" options. This program's external sort-
	 ing method was designed to work with GNU sort.

     -T dir
	 Specifies the directory sort should use as a temporary work area.  The
	 default directory is that specified by the TMPDIR environment variable,
	 or /tmp if TMPDIR is not set.

     -w  Enables support for WINX map data.
