IMG_CAT(1)		    General Commands Manual		    IMG_CAT(1)

NAME
       img_cat - Output	contents of an image file.

SYNOPSIS
       img_cat	 [-i  imgtype]	[-b  dev_sector_size]  [-s  start_sector]  [-e
       stop_sector] [-vV] image	[images]

DESCRIPTION
       img_cat outputs the contents of an image	file.  Image  files  that  are
       not raw will have embedded data and metadata.  img_cat will output only
       the  data.   This allows	you to convert an embedded format to raw or to
       calculate the MD5 hash of the data by piping the	output to  the	appro-
       priate tool.

ARGUMENTS
       -i imgtype
	      Identify	the  type  of image file, such as raw or aff.  Use '-i
	      list' to list the	supported types.  If not given,	 autodetection
	      methods are used.

       -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.

       -s start_sector
	      The sector number	to start at.

       -e stop_sector
	      The sector number	to stop	at.

       -v     Verbose output of	debugging statements to	stderr

       -V     Display version

       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.
