FSU_CAT(1)

NAME
fsu_cat - concatenate and print files from a file system image through rump

SYNOPSIS
fsu_cat [-benstv] fstype fsdevice [-] [file ...]

DESCRIPTION
The fsu_cat utility reads files sequentially, writing them to the standard output. The file operands are absolute path in the fstype file system image contained in fsdevice and are processed in command line order.

The word “concatenate” is just a verbose synonym for “catenate”.

The options are as follows:

-b  Implies the -n option but doesn't number blank lines.

-e  Implies the -v option, and displays a dollar sign (‘$’) at the end of each line as well.

-n  Number the output lines, starting at 1.

-s  Squeeze multiple adjacent empty lines, causing the output to be single spaced.

-t  Implies the -v option, and displays tab characters as ‘^I’ as well.

-v  Displays non-printing characters so they are visible. Control characters print as ‘^X’ for control-X; the delete character (octal 0177) prints as ‘^?’. Non-ascii characters (with the high bit set) are printed as ‘M-’ (for meta) followed by the character for the low 7 bits.

EXAMPLES
The command:

    fsu_cat cd9660 cd9660_image.iso file1

will print the contents of file1 to the standard output.

The command:

    fsu_cat ufs ufs_image.iso file1 file2 file3

will sequentially print the contents of file1 and file2 to the file file3, truncating file3 if it already exists. See the manual page for your shell (i.e., sh(1)) for more information on redirection.
