E2tools is a simple set of GPL'ed utilities to read, write, and
manipulate files in an ext2/ext3 filesystem.  These utilities access a
filesystem directly using the ext2fs library.  I wrote these tools in order
to copy files into a linux filesystem on a machine that does not have ext2
support.  Of course, they can also be used on a linux machine to read/write
to disk images or floppies without having to mount them or have root
access.

Supported functionality:

copy files: e2cp
move files: e2mv
remove files: e2rm
create directory: e2mkdir
create hard links: e2ln
list files/directories: e2ls
output the last part of a file: e2tail

Requirements:

e2fsprogs-1.27 or later - http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net/
gcc - e2fsprogs will not compile with some proprietary compilers (ie SCO's)

If you have questions, comments, patches, or feature requests, just email
them to me.  I will do my best to respond in a timely manner.
