For your convenience, you can type single consecutive switches as one switch.
For example, instead of:
-c -r --one-file-system
You can type:
-cr --one-file-system
To start running the program, at the command prompt, type:
./vscanx
To have the program examine a specific file or list of files, add the target directories or files to the command line after vscanx. You can also create a text file that lists your target files, then add the name of the text file to the command line.
NOTE: By default, the program examines all files, no matter what their extensions. You can limit your scan operation by adding only
those extensions you want to examine to the command line after the --extensions option, or you may exclude certain files from scan operations with the --exclude option.
