.SH DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the
.B hogextract
command.
This manual page was written for the Debian distribution
because the original program does not have a manual page.
.PP
.B hogextract
is an utility to extract all the files contained in HOG archives, like that
found in the DESCENT II videogame and played by the D2X package.
It supports all HOG files around, so if you find one that doesn't work,
please report this as a bug.

HOG archives are files with a .hog extension, and contains all of the data
which constitutes a DESCENT II's level.

You'll find some HOG files as part of the Descent II datafiles.
.SH OPTIONS
A summary of options is included below.  These command-line options do
not appear to be documented elsewhere, so the only authoritive source is
the source code itself.
.TP
.B v
Don't extract, print a listing of all files to stdout.
