NAME
       ntfscluster - identify files in a specified region of an	NTFS volume.

SYNOPSIS
       ntfscluster [options] device

DESCRIPTION
       ntfscluster has three modes of operation: info, sector and cluster.

   Info
       The  default  mode, info	is currently not implemented.  It will display
       general information about the NTFS volume when it is working.

   Sector
       The sector mode will display a list of files  that  have	 data  in  the
       specified range of sectors.

   Cluster
       The  cluster  mode  will	 display a list	of files that have data	in the
       specified range of clusters.  When the cluster size is one sector, this
       will be equivalent to the sector	mode of	operation.

OPTIONS
       Below is	a summary of all the options that ntfscluster accepts.	Nearly
       all options have	two equivalent names.  The short name is preceded by -
       and the long name is preceded by	--.  Any single	letter	options,  that
       don't  take  an	argument,  can be combined into	a single command, e.g.
       -fv is equivalent to -f -v.  Long named options can be  abbreviated  to
       any unique prefix of their name.

       -c, --cluster RANGE
	      Any  files  whose	data is	in this	range of clusters will be dis-
	      played.

       -F, --filename NAME
	      Show information about this file.

       -f, --force
	      This will	override some sensible defaults, such as  not  working
	      with a mounted volume.  Use this option with caution.

       -h, --help
	      Show a list of options with a brief description of each one.

       -I, --inode NUM
	      Show information about this inode.

       -i, --info
	      This option is not yet implemented.

       -q, --quiet
	      Reduce the amount	of output to a minimum.	 Naturally, it doesn't
	      make sense to combine this option	with --verbose

       -s, --sector RANGE
	      Any  files  whose	 data is in this range of sectors will be dis-
	      played.

       -v, --verbose
	      Increase the amount of output that ntfscluster prints.

       -V, --version
	      Show the version number, copyright and license for ntfscluster.

EXAMPLES
       Get some	information about the volume /dev/hda1.

	      ntfscluster /dev/hda1

       Look for	files in the first 500 clusters	of /dev/hda1.

	      ntfscluster -c 0-500 /dev/hda1

BUGS
       The info	mode isn't implemented yet.  ntfscluster is quite limited, but
       it has no known bugs.  If you find a bug	please send an email  describ-
       ing the problem to the development team:
       ntfs-3g-devel@lists.sf.net
