       This  manual  page  documents  briefly  the  reged  command.  This manual page was written for the Debian

       reged - utility to export/import and edit a Windows registry hives

-h     Show summary of options.

       -x<registryhivefile><prefixstring><key><output.reg>
              Export  parts  of a hive file to a text registry (.reg)  file.  Prefixstring indicates the part of
              the registry hive to dump (for example HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE). The <key>  parameter  defines
              the key to dump (recursively). You can use \ or \\ to list all the keys in the hive file.

              Only one hive file and one .reg file can be defined.

       -I<registryhivefile><prefixstring><input.reg>
              Import  the content of the input.reg file into the registry file.  The value <prefixstring> can be
              any valid prefix, for example is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE.

              Only one .reg and one hive file supported at the same time

       -e<registryhive>...
              Interactive edit one or more registry files.

       -L     Log all changed filenames to /tmp/changed. When this option is set the program automatically saves
              the changes in the hive files without prompting the user.

              Be careful when using the -L option as a root user in a multiuser system.  The filename  is  fixed
              and  this  can  be  used  by  malicious users (dropping a symlink with the same name) to overwrite
              system files.

       -C     Automatically save all changes. Do not prompt the user.

       -N     Do not allocate more information, only allow the editing of existing values with same size.

       -E     Do not expand the hive file (safe mode).

       -t     Print debug information of allocated blocks.

       -v     Print verbose information and debug messages.
