ydecode

NAME

ydecode - Usenet file decoder

SYNOPSIS

ydecode [-d, --debug] [-f, --force] [-k, --keep] [-l, --list] [-o, --output=dir] [-p, --paths] [-q, --quiet] [-r, --recursive] [-s, --scan] [-t, --test] [--strict] [--verify] [--help] [--version] [FILE] ...

DESCRIPTION

ydecode decodes the files specified on the command line according to the yEnc Usenet encoding format. If no regular files are specified, ydecode will scan any directories specified on the command line and/or the current directory for yEnc encoded files, and decode them.

OPTIONS

-d, --debug

Write messages useful for debugging to stderr while program is operating.

-f, --force

If the output file already exists, overwrite the existing file without prompting.

-k, --keep

If an error occurs during the decoding process, do not remove the erroneous output file.

-l, --list

Only list information about encoded files specified on the command line or found during scanning.

-o, --output=dir

Create output in dir instead of the current directory.

-p, --paths

Obey relative pathnames to files in the encoded data. For example, if an encoded file specifies the output file name as files/new/bigfile.mp3, ydecode will by default ignore the paths and save the file as bigfile.mp3. If the -p option is specified, the output file will be saved as files/new/bigfile.mp3.

-q, --quiet

Try to avoid writing output while running. The only output that will occur is error messages.

-r, --recursive

When scanning for encoded files, scan directories recursively.

-t, --test

Operate as usual, decoding and testing the integrity of all input files (or files found during scanning), but do not actually create output files.

--strict

If this option is requested, more strict checks against the yEnc specification will be performed while testing or decoding files. The decoded data output will be unaffected, but warning messages will be output when non-compliant data is found. This option is highly recommended for individuals who want to implement yEnc encoding into their own applications, to test the validity of their compressed data.

--verify

Synonym for `--test --strict'.

--help

Display program help and exit.

--version

Output version number and exit.
