NAME

       extresso - wrapper for wrestool and icotool

SYNOPSIS

       extresso [OPTIONS]... [FILE]...

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page documents briefly the extresso command.  This manual
       page was written for the Debian GNU distribution because  the  original
       program does not have a manual page.

       Extresso  reads  resource  scripts,  and  uses  wrestool to extract the
       listed resources and icotool to convert them (if necessary).

OPTIONS

       These programs follow the usual GNU  command  line  syntax,  with  long
       options starting with two dashes (‘-’).

       -o,--output=DIR
              Where to place extracted files (default ‘.’).

       --format=FORMAT
              Extraction format of icon resources, passed to icotool.

       -b,--base=DIR
              Base directory of local files in scripts. (This will be appended
              to ‘‘file’’ lines in the scripts.)

       -i,--interactive
              Prompt before extraction.

       -v,--verbose
              Explain what is being done.

       --help Display a help message and exit.

       --version
              Output version information and exit.

EXAMPLES

       Extract all  resources  from  shell32.dll  using  the  resource  script
       ‘‘win98_shell32’’,      assuming      it      is      available      in
       ‘‘/windows/windows/system/shell32.dll’’,   and   placing   output    in
       ‘‘out/’’:

         $  extresso  ../data/resscripts/win98_shell32 --base=/windows/windows
       --output=out/
         $ find out/ -type f | wc -l
         339
         $
