DESCRIPTION
apple_dump dump AppleSingle/AppleDouble format file.
OPTIONS
-a FILE|DIR
This is default. Dump a AppleSingle/AppleDouble file for FILE or
DIR automatically. Extrapolate FinderInfo type from absolute path.
If FILE is not AppleSingle/AppleDouble format, look for
.AppleDouble/FILE and ._FILE. If DIR, look for
DIR/.AppleDouble/.Parent and ._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
NOTE
There is no way to detect whether FinderInfo is FileInfo or DirInfo. By
default, apple_dump examins whether file or directory, a parent
directory is .AppleDouble, filename is ._*, filename is .Parent, and so
on.
If setting option -f or -d, assume FinderInfo and doesn´t look for
another file.
