Options
Option		Param	Description
`-a`	`--auto`		Search WBFS partitions using '/proc/partitions' or searching hard disks in '/dev/' and use all readable as source. This works like »wwt --auto --all«.
`-s`	`--source`	path	Use the entered file or directory as source. If parameter PATH contains at least one wildcard (e.g. '*.wbfs'), then PATH is used as search pattern and all found files are added. In order to use this variant, the calling shell must not interpret the wildcards. Therefore, the parameter must usually be enclosed in single or double quotes. Directories are expanded to all containing files but hidden files (file names begins with a point) are ignored. If a command needs only images then non image files of the directory are ignored without notification. The option --no-expand suppress the directory expansion.
	`--no-expand`		Do not expand directories to the containing files or images. This option does not change the behavior of --recurse.
`-r`	`--recurse`	path	If path is not a directory, then it is used as a simple source file like --source. If parameter PATH contains at least one wildcard (e.g. '*.wbfs'), then PATH is used as search pattern and all found files are added. In order to use this variant, the calling shell must not interpret the wildcards. Therefore, the parameter must usually be enclosed in single or double quotes. Directories are scanned for source files recursively. The option --rdepth limits the search depth. Hidden files and hidden sub directories (file names begins with a point) and files with non supported file types (non ISO files for most commands) are ignored without notification.
	`--rdepth`	depth	Set the maximum recurse depth for option --recurse. The default search depth is 10.
`-x`	`--exclude`	id	A comma separated list with ID4 and ID6 values is expected. '.' is a wildcard for exact 1 character and '+' is a wildcard for any number characters. If the parameter begins with a '@' the given file is read and each line is scanned for one ID. Images with the given ID are excluded from operation. Each use of this option expands the exclude list. See --include-first for precedence issues.
`-X`	`--exclude-path`	file_or_dir	Scan the ID of the source and add it to the exclude list. If the source is a directory then scan all images of the directory. Images with the given ID are excluded from operation. Each use of this option expands the exclude list. See --include-first for precedence issues.
`-n`	`--include`	id	A comma separated list with ID values is expected. '.' is a wildcard for exact 1 character and '+' is a wildcard for any number characters. If the parameter begins with a '@' the given file is read and each line is scanned for one ID. Only images with the given ID are included into the operation. Each use of this option expands the include list. See --include-first for precedence issues.
`-N`	`--include-path`	file_or_dir	Scan the ID of the source and add it to the include list. If the source is a directory then scan all images of the directory. Only images with the given ID are included into the operation. Each use of this option expands the include list. See --include-first for precedence issues.
	`--include-first`		The options --include, --include-path, --exclude and --exclude-path decide which discs are included into the operation. If neither include nor exclude options are used, than all disc are included into the operation. If only include options are used, than only the specified discs are operated. If only exclude options are used, than all all discs but not the excluded are operated. If include and exclude options are used together and --include-first is not set, than all discs are operated that are specified by any include option and not by any exclude option. If --include-first is set, than all discs are ignored that are specified by any exclude option and not by any include option.
`-1`	`--one-job`		Execute only the first job and exit. This is a shortcut for »--job-limit 1«.
	`--job-limit`	num	Execute only the first 'num' jobs and exit. If done without errors the exit status is OK (zero).
`-i`	`--ignore`		Ignore non existing files/discs without warning. If set twice then all non Wii and GameCube ISO images are ignored too.
	`--ignore-fst`		Disable composing and ignore FST directories as input. This legacy option is a shortcut for --allow-fst=off.
	`--ignore-setup`		While composing ignore the file 'setup.txt', which defines some partition parameters.
	`--links`		Detect soft and hard linked source files while composing or extracting discs and try to create hard links instead of independent copies on the destination file system.
	`--allow-fst`	[=mode]	Enable the usage of extracted images.MODE is either OFF, AUTO (default) or ON. Without value, ON is used. If mode is AUTO, extracted images are usually enabled.
	`--allow-nkit`	[=mode]	Enable the detection of NKIT images.MODE is either OFF, AUTO (default) or ON. Without value, ON is used. If mode is AUTO, the NKIT detection is enabled only for a few analytic commands. Anyway, NKIT images are not supported yet, but detected to print warnings.
`-H`	`--no-header`		Suppress printing of header and footer.
`-l`	`--long`		If set at least once or twice additional columns with ID6 (1x) or the region (2x) are enabled. If set three or more times the real path instead of given path is printed.
