8 hfsp hfsplus - Collection of tools to acces HFS+ volumes.
9
10 DESCRIPTION
11
12
13 The hfsplus collection cotains tools to read and display the files
14 found on an HFS+ formatted volume. HFS+ is the volume format intodruced
15 by Apple Computer inc. around MacOS 8. The HFS+ format uses a better
16 approach to acces large volumes and allows files with a size up to
17 2[circ ]64 bytes. In Addition filenames are saved as two-byte unicode
18 with a length upto 255 (unicode) characters.
19
20 In contrast to its sucessor, the hfs-tools hfsplus does not use the
21 volume/directory/file/ syntax using ':' as delimiter but uses the stan‐
22 dard unix '/', '..' and '.' notation. Since this concept is not fully
23 supported my HFS+ not all combinations will be understood.
