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/sys-
       tem/shell32.dll'', and placing output in ``out/'':

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