NAME

       cdxar - Read the Extended Attribute Record from a CD-ROM

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/bin/cdxar [-s number] [-b] file

OPTIONS

       Specifies  the  File  Section  for  which the XAR is to be read.  The numbering starts with one and number can be any whole number. If this
       option is not used, the last file section of the named file is assumed.	Copies the entire XAR from a CD-ROM in binary format  to  standard
       output.	Names a file or directory within the CD-ROM file hierarchy of a mounted CD-ROM File System.

DESCRIPTION

       The  cdxar  command accesses the Extended Attribute Record (XAR) associated with the File Section of a file or directory and lists its con-
       tents on standard output.

       The output is formatted in a table that contains the name of each field of the XAR and the corresponding contents of the entry as  recorded
       on  the	CD-ROM. Note that the Application Use Field and the Escape Sequences are not listed because they may contain non-printable charac-
       ters.

       If the command is used without the -b option, only the fixed part of the XAR is copied from the CD-ROM.

       Users must have read permission for file in order to execute the command.

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned: The command was successful.  The named file was not found, or was not within the CD-ROM	hierarchy,
       or  access permission was denied.  The File Section indicated by -s does not exist.  The File Section indicated by -s has no XAR.  The File
       Section indicated by -s is not on the mounted CD-ROM.
