hpcopy — copy files from an HFS+ volume

       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.

hpcopy  copies files and directories from an HFS+ volume.  If multiple files are to be copied, the target
       path must be a directory.

       Since Macintosh files contain two forks, which are not representably in Unix file systems, copies use one
       of several translation modes:

       -mMacBinaryII is a format for binary file transfer.  Both  forks  of  the  Macintosh  file  are
                 preserved.  This is the recommended mode for transferring arbitrary Macintosh files.

       -bBinHex also preserves both forks of the Macintosh file.  In addition, the encoded file contains
                 only ASCII characters, making it suitable for electronic mail transmission.

       -tText  copies  only the data fork of the Macintosh file, while the contents of the resource fork
                 are lost.  In addition, this mode translates end-of-line characters.  This  translation  should
                 be used for text files.

       -rRawData  copies  only the data fork of the Macintosh file, while the contents of the resource
                 fork are lost.

       -aAutomatic mode applies a set of predefined heuristics to determine the appropriate translation.
                 This is the default if no mode is specified.
