NAME
       mincexpand - expands a compressed minc file, if necessary.

SYNOPSIS
       mincexpand [<options>] <infile> [<outfile>]

DESCRIPTION
       Mincexpand  expands  a  compressed, packed, gzipped or zipped minc file into a temporary file using gunzip (or zcat or pcat) and prints out
       the name of the new file. If the input file is not compressed, then nothing is done and the original file name is printed. A second line is
       printed,  indicating whether the name is that of a new temporary file ("Temporary") or that of the original file ("Original"). If no output
       file name is given, then the program generates its own.

OPTIONS
       -header_only
	      Expand only enough of the file to be able to read the header.

       -all_data
	      Expand the whole file (default).

       -name_only
	      Print out only the file name, not the status (Temporary or Original).

       -help  Print summary of command-line options and exit.

       -version
	      Print the program's version number and exit.
