Overview
apple_dump is a perl script to dump AppleSingle/AppleDouble format data.
This script can dump various AppleSingle/AppleDouble data created by mailer, archiver, Mac OS X, Netatalk and so on.
With no FILE|DIR, or when FILE|DIR is '-', read standard input.
Options
-
-a [FILE|DIR] -
This is default. Dump a AppleSingle/AppleDouble data for FILE or DIR automatically. If FILE is not AppleSingle/AppleDouble format, look for extended attribute, .AppleDouble/FILE and ._FILE. If DIR, look for extended attribute, DIR/.AppleDouble/.Parent and ._DIR.
-
-e FILE|DIR -
Dump extended attribute of FILE or DIR.
-
-f [FILE] -
Dump FILE. Assume FinderInfo to be FileInfo.
-
-d [FILE] -
Dump FILE. Assume FinderInfo to be DirInfo.
-
-h, -help, --help -
Display the help and exit
-
-v, -version, --version -
Show version and exit
Note
There is no way to detect whether FinderInfo is FileInfo or DirInfo. By default, apple_dump examines whether file or directory, a parent directory is .AppleDouble, filename is ._*, filename is .Parent, and so on.
If setting option -e, -f or -d, assume FinderInfo and doesn't look for another data.
