.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
.B hfsutils
|
||
|
|
is a collection of tools and programs for accessing Macintosh HFS-formatted
|
||
|
|
volumes. See the accompanying man page for each program above for more
|
||
|
|
information.
|
||
|
|
.SH NOTES
|
||
|
|
These utilities can manipulate HFS volumes on nearly any medium. A UNIX path
|
||
|
|
is initially specified to
|
||
|
|
.B hmount
|
||
|
|
or
|
||
|
|
.B hformat
|
||
|
|
which gives the location of the volume. This path can be a block device --
|
||
|
|
corresponding to, for example, a floppy disk, CD-ROM, SCSI disk, or other
|
||
|
|
device -- or it can be a regular file containing an image of any of the
|
||
|
|
above.
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
The medium specified by the UNIX path may or may not contain an Apple
|
||
|
|
partition map. If partitioned, it is possible for more than one HFS volume to
|
||
|
|
be present on the medium. In this case, a partition number must also be given
|
||
|
|
which selects the desired partition. This number refers to the
|
||
|
|
.IR n th
|
||
|
|
ordinal HFS partition on the volume. (Other, non-HFS partitions are ignored.)
|
||
|
|
Partition number
|
||
|
|
.B 0
|
||
|
|
refers to the entire medium, disregarding the partition map, if any.
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
HFS pathnames consist of colon-separated components. Unlike UNIX pathnames, an
|
||
|
|
HFS path which begins with a colon (e.g. :Foo:Bar) is a
|
||
|
|
.I relative
|
||
|
|
path, and one which does not (e.g. Foo:Bar) is an
|
||
|
|
.I absolute
|
||
|
|
path. As sole exception to this rule, a path not containing any colons is
|
||
|
|
assumed to be relative.
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
Absolute pathnames always begin with the name of the volume itself. Any
|
||
|
|
occurrence of two or more consecutive colons in a path causes resolution of
|
||
|
|
the path to ascend into parent directories.
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
Most of the command-line programs support HFS filename globbing. The following
|
||
|
|
forms of globbing are supported:
|
||
|
|
.SP
|
||
|
|
.TP
|
||
|
|
.B *
|
||
|
|
matches zero or more characters.
|
||
|
|
.TP
|
||
|
|
.B ?
|
||
|
|
matches exactly one character.
|
||
|
|
.TP
|
||
|
|
.BR [ ... ]
|
||
|
|
matches any single character enclosed within the brackets. A character range
|
||
|
|
may be specified by using a hypen (-). Note that matches are not case
|
||
|
|
sensitive.
|
||
|
|
.TP
|
||
|
|
.BR { ... , ... }
|
||
|
|
expands into the Cartesian product of each specified substring.
|
||
|
|
.TP
|
||
|
|
.B \\\\
|
||
|
|
causes the following character to be matched literally.
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
Note that since globbing is performed by each HFS command rather than by the
|
||
|
|
UNIX shell (which knows nothing about HFS volumes), care should always be
|
||
|
|
taken to protect pathnames from the shell by using an appropriate quoting
|
||
|
|
technique. Typically it is best to surround HFS pathnames containing glob
|
||
|
|
characters with single quotes (').
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
Time stamps on HFS volumes are interpreted as being relative to the current
|
||
|
|
time zone. This means that modification dates on HFS volumes written in
|
||
|
|
another time zone may appear to be off by some number of hours.
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
Hardware limitations prevent some systems from reading or writing native
|
||
|
|
Macintosh 800K floppy disks; only high-density 1440K disks can be used on
|
||
|
|
these systems.
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
The obsolete MFS volume format is not supported by this software.
