[Name]
sqfscat - tool to cat files from a squashfs filesystem to stdout
[Description]
Squashfs is a highly compressed read-only filesystem for Linux.
It uses either gzip/xz/lzo/lz4/zstd compression to compress both files, inodes
and directories. Inodes in the system are very small and all blocks are
packed to minimise data overhead. Block sizes greater than 4K are supported
up to a maximum of 1Mbytes (default block size 128K).
Squashfs is intended for general read-only filesystem use, for archival
use (i.e. in cases where a .tar.gz file may be used), and in constrained
block device/memory systems (e.g. embedded systems) where low overhead is
needed.
[Examples]
.TP
sqfscat IMAGE.SQFS hello
Output the contents of "hello" to stdout.
.TP
sqfscat IMAGE.SQFS hello world
Output the contents of "hello" and then "world" to stdout.
.TP
sqfscat IMAGE.SQFS "*.[ch]"
Output the contents of all the files in the root directory that match the
wildcard *.[ch], to stdout, e.g. hello.c, hello.h, world.c, world.h.
.PP
Note: when passing wildcarded names to Sqfscat, they should be quoted (as in
the above examples), to ensure that they are not processed by the shell.
