NAME

       blkls - List or output file system data units.

SYNOPSIS

       blkls [-aAelsvV] [-f fstype ] [-i imgtype ] [-o imgoffset ] [-b dev_sector_size] image [images] [start-stop]

DESCRIPTION

       blkls  opens  the  named  image(s)  and	copies file system data units (blocks).  By default, blkls copies the contents of unallocated data
       blocks.	blkls was called dls in TSK versions prior to 3.0.0.  blkls was called unrm in TCT.

ARGUMENTS

       -e     Copy every block, including file system metadata blocks. The output is the entire file system.

       -a     Display all allocated blocks (same as -e if -A is also given).

       -A     Display all unallocated blocks (same as -e if -a is also given). This is the default behavior.

       -f fstype
	      Specifies the file system type.  Use '-f list' to list the supported file system types.  If not  given,  autodetection  methods  are
	      used.

       -i imgtype
	      Identify	the  type  of  image  file, such as raw or split.  Use '-i list' to list the supported types.  If not given, autodetection
	      methods are used.

       -o imgoffset
	      The sector offset where the file system starts in the image.

       -b dev_sector_size
	      The size, in bytes, of the underlying device sectors.  If not given, the value in the  image  format  is	used  (if  it  exists)	or
	      512-bytes is assumed.

       -l     List the data information in time machine format.

       -s     Copy only the slack space of the image.

       -v     Turn on verbose mode, output to stderr.

       -V     Display version.

       image [images]
	      One (or more if split) disk or partition images whose format is given with '-i'.

       start-stop ...
	      Examine the specified block number or number range.
