is a utility to verify media data stored in EWF files.
.Pp
.Nm ewfverify
is part of the
.Nm libewf
package.
.Nm libewf
is a library to support the Expert Witness Compression Format (EWF).
.Nm libewf
supports both the SMART format (EWF-S01) and the EnCase format (EWF-E01).
.Nm libewf
currently does not support the Logical Volume format (EWF-L01). EWF-X is an expirimental format intended for testing purposes to enhance the EWF format.
.Nm libewf
allows you to read and write media data in the EWF format.
.Pp
.Ar ewf_files
the first or the entire set of EWF segment files
.Pp
The options are as follows:
.Bl -tag -width Ds
.It Fl A Ar codepage
the codepage of header section, options: ascii (default), windows-874, windows-932, windows-936, windows-1250, windows-1251, windows-1252, windows-1253, windows-1254, windows-1255, windows-1256, windows-1257 or windows-1258
specify the input format, options: raw (default), files (restricted to logical volume files)
.It Fl h
shows this help
.It Fl l Ar log_filename
logs verification errors and the digest (hash) to the log filename
.It Fl p Ar process_buffer_size
the process buffer size (default is the chunk size)
.It Fl q
quiet shows minimal status information
.It Fl v
verbose output to stderr
.It Fl V
print version
.It Fl w
zero sectors on checksum error (mimic EnCase like behavior)
