	      Scan target file(s) for common file signatures

       -R, --raw=<str>
	      Scan target file(s) for the specified sequence of bytes

       -A, --opcodes
	      Scan target file(s) for common executable opcode signatures

       -m, --magic=<file>
	      Specify a custom magic file to use

       -b, --dumb
	      Disable smart signature keywords

       -I, --invalid
	      Show results marked as invalid

       -x, --exclude=<str>
	      Exclude results that match <str>

       -y, --include=<str>
	      Only show results that match <str>

       -e, --extract
	      Automatically extract known file types

       -D, --dd=<type:ext:cmd>

       -M, --matryoshka
	      Recursively scan extracted files

       -d, --depth=<int>
	      Limit matryoshka recursion depth (default: 8 levels deep)

       -C, --directory=<str>
	      Extract  files/folders  to  a custom directory (default: current
	      working directory)

       -j, --size=<int>
	      Limit the size of each extracted file

       -n, --count=<int>
	      Limit the number of extracted files

       -r, --rm
	      Delete carved files after extraction

       -z, --carve
	      Carve data from files, but don't execute extraction utilities

   Entropy Analysis Options:
       -E, --entropy
	      Calculate file entropy

       -F, --fast

       -Q, --nlegend
	      Omit the legend from the entropy plot graph

       -N, --nplot
	      Do not generate an entropy plot graph

       -H, --high=<float>
	      Set the rising edge entropy trigger threshold (default: 0.95)

       -L, --low=<float>
	      Set the falling edge entropy trigger threshold (default: 0.85)

   Binary Diffing Options:
       -W, --hexdump
	      Perform a hexdump / diff of a file or files

       -G, --green
	      Only show lines containing bytes that are	 the  same  among  all
	      files

       -i, --red
	      Only  show  lines	 containing bytes that are different among all
	      files

       -U, --blue
	      Only show lines containing bytes that are different  among  some
	      files

       -w, --terse
	      Diff all files, but only display a hex dump of the first file

       -X, --deflate
	      Scan for raw deflate compression streams

       -Z, --lzma
	      Scan for raw LZMA compression streams
