- NAME
- xfdScan 1.00
-
- SYNOPSIS
- xfdScan SOURCE/A,DEST/A,NE=NOEXTERN/S,SO=SCANODD/S
-
- DESCRIPTION
- xfdScan searches for crunched data areas inside files.
- It requires either Kickstart V37+ or the arp.library
- together with older OS releases.
-
- SOURCE specifies the file (with path) that should be
- scanned. No wildcards or directories supported.
-
- DEST specifies the basic filename that should be used
- to save the crunched data if something was found.
- xfdScan appends '.00' and so on to the basic filename
- as there may be more than one crunched file.
-
- NOEXTERN switches off the usage of external slaves.
- Use this option only if external slaves crash your
- computer or otherwise behave in an annoying way.
-
- SCANODD causes the data scanner to scan at odd
- addresses too. This option causes an error if you
- don't have at least a 68020 CPU. Don't use this too
- much as most data is word-aligned anyway.
-
- EXAMPLE
- Shell> xfdScan dh0:BigFile ram:Data
-
- Scans the file 'dh0:BigFile' and saves the resulting
- files (if any) as 'ram:Data.00' etc.
-
- HISTORY
