.SH DESCRIPTION
28
This manual page documents briefly the
29
.B mvlextract
30
command.
31
This manual page was written for the Debian distribution
32
because the original program does not have a manual page.

.B mvlextract
35
is an utility to extract MVE movie files, like that found in the
36
DESCENT II videogame and played by the D2X package, archived in a MVL file,
37
i.e. a file with a .mvl extension. It supports all MVL files around, so if
38
you find one that doesn't work, please report this as a bug.
39
 
40
You'll find some MVL files as part of the Descent II Registered datafiles.
41
.SH OPTIONS
42
A summary of options is included below.  These command-line options do
43
not appear to be documented elsewhere, so the only authoritive source is
44
the source code itself.

Don't extract, print a listing of all MVE files to stdout.
