       -v, --verbose
	      Display more debug/warning/error messages.

       -x, --dos
	      Display short file names, i.e.  files  in	 the  DOS
	      namespace,  instead  of long file names, i.e. files
	      in the WIN32 namespace.

       -d, --device DEVICE
	      The special file corresponding to the  device  that
	      contains	the  NTFS partition to read.  If you want
	      to use an image of an NTFS partition  stored  on	a
	      normal  file,  you will also need to specify the -f
	      or --force options.
