NAME

       MAT - Metadata Anonymisation Toolkit

SYNOPSIS

       mat [options] files

       mat-gui

DESCRIPTION

       The  Metadata  Anonymisation Toolkit is a lib (with a CLI and a GUI) created to anonymise file's metadata. In essence, metadata answer who,
       what, when, where, why, and how about every face of the data that are being documented. They can be a risk for privacy.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
	      show this help message and exit

       -a, --add2archive
	      Add to outputed archive non-supported filetypes

       -b, --backup
	      Keep a backup copy

       -c, --check
	      Check if a file is free of harmful metadatas

       -d, --display
	      List all the harmful meta of a file without removing them

       -f, --force
	      Don't check if files are clean before cleaning

       -l, --list
	      List all supported fileformat

       -v, --version
	      Display version and exit

EXAMPLES

       mat --display mydocument.pdf
	      Display the mydocument.pdf's harmful metadata

       mat --check *.jpg
	      Check all the jpg images from the current folder

NOTES

       MAT only process metadata, it does not handle file data.  Blame yourself if you are traced back because of the data of your files.  MAT	is
       not  perfect  : In most of the cases, a forensic expert with a lot of time can trace back your document.  If you want absolute privacy, use
       plain-text.

BUGS

       MAT does not handle watermaking/tattoo for now.
