GPTPARSER
=========

gptparser is a GUID Partition Table (GPT) parser. The input is a file containing the contents of a drive's GPT, which could be the first 34 sectors (called Logical Block Addresses, or LBAs) of the partition. The file should be an integer increment of sectors, or 512 bytes, in size.

The program's command line format is:

     gptparser [-i input_file]
     gptparser {[-h] | [-v] | [-t]}

where: -i is the input file name
       -h prints this help file
       -v displays the program version number
       -t prints the GPT template file

Examples
--------

To parse a GPT header file named GPT, use:

     gptparser -i GPT

To display the GPT header template, use:

     gptparser -t
