|
<H2>OPTIONS</H2>
|
|
|
|
Below is a summary of all the options that
|
|
<B>ntfsfix</B>
|
|
|
|
accepts. Nearly all options have two equivalent names. The short name is
|
|
preceded by
|
|
<B>-</B>
|
|
|
|
and the long name is preceded by
|
|
<B>--</B>.
|
|
|
|
Any single letter options, that don't take an argument, can be combined into a
|
|
single command, e.g.
|
|
<B>-fv</B>
|
|
|
|
is equivalent to
|
|
<B>-f -v</B>.
|
|
|
|
Long named options can be abbreviated to any unique prefix of their name.
|
|
