- ---eeexxxtttrrraaassskkkiiippp
- This flag is to get around a problem with some methods of
- transferring files from the Mac world to the Unix world. Most of
- these methods leave the Mac files alone, but a few of them add the
- "finderinfo" data onto the front of the Unix file. This means an
- extra 128 bytes to skip over when reading the file. The symptom to
- watch for is that the resulting PBM file looks shifted to one side.
- If you get this, try ---eeexxxtttrrraaassskkkiiippp 128, and if that still doesn't look
- right try another value.
-
- All flags can be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix.
