======================
Disc Image Chef (because "swiss-army-knife" is used too much)
Copyright © 2011-2016 Natalia Portillo <claunia@claunia.com>
[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/claunia/DiscImageChef.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/claunia/DiscImageChef)[![Build status](https://ci.appveyor.com/api/projects/status/vim4c8h028pn5oys?svg=true)](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/claunia/discimagechef)
Usage
=====
DiscImageChef.exe
And read help.
Works under any operating system where there is Mono or .NET Framework. Tested with Mono 3.0.
Features
========
* Can read several disk image formats.
* Can read standard sector by sector copies for optical and magnetic discs with constant bytes per sector.
* Can read several known sector by sector formats with variable bytes per sector.
* Analyzes a disk image getting information about the disk itself and analyzes partitions and filesystems inside them
* Can compare two disk images, even different formats, for different sectors and/or metadata
* Can verify sectors or disk images if supported by the underlying format
* Can checksum the disks (and if optical disc, separate tracks) user-data (tags and metadata coming soon)
* Can list and extract contents from filesystems that support that
