Description-en: utilities for manipulating files in an ext2/ext3 filesystem
E2tools is a simple set of utilities to read, write, and manipulate
files in an ext2/ext3 filesystem.
.
The purpose of these utilities is manipulating ext2/ext3 filesystems
from userspace without the need for mounting them, so that they can be
used directly by normal users.
.
Included utilities are e2cp, e2mv, e2rm, e2mkdir, e2ln, e2ls and e2tail.
