hfsplus — a set of tools to access HFS+ file systems

       This manual page was written by Jens Schmalzing <jensen@debian.org> for DebianGNU/Linux using the manual
       page  by  Klaus  Halfmann  <halfmann@libra.de> that comes with the source code and documentation from the
       TechInfoLibrary.

                                                                                                      hfsplus(7)

       HFS+,  also  known  as  the  Macintosh Extended Format, was introduced by Apple Computer in 1998 with the
       release of MacOS 8.1.  It contains many improvements over the old  HFS  file  system,  most  notably  the
       ability  to  allocate  up to 2^64 blocks, resulting in much more efficient storage of many small files on
       large disks.

       The hfsplus collection allows one to access volumes formatted with  the  HFS+  file  system  from  DebianGNU/Linux  and  related  operating  systems.   The  collection  contains  tools to mount and unmount HFS+
       volumes, to change and list directories, and to copy files to and from HFS+ volumes.

       Note that unlike its cousin, the hfsutils collection used for accessing HFS file  systems,  hfsplus  does
       not  use  the  Macintosh  pathname  syntax  with ":" as delimiter.  Instead, it mimics the unix notation,
       delimiting the names of volumes, directories and files in a path with "/", and also understands  "."  and
       ".." to some extent.
