.SH OPTIONS
.TP
-.B \-b
+.B -b, --backup
Forces
.B quotacheck
to make backups of the quota file before writing the new data.
.TP
-.B \-v
+.B -v, --verbose
.B quotacheck
reports its operation as it progresses. Normally it operates silently.
If the option is specified twice, also the current directory is printed (note
that printing can slow down the scan measurably).
.TP
-.B \-d
+.B -d, --debug
Enable debugging mode. It will result in a lot of information which can
be used in debugging the program. The output is very verbose and the
scan will be slow.
.TP
-.B \-u
+.B -u, --user
Only user quotas listed in
.I /etc/mtab
or on the filesystems specified are to be checked. This is the default action.
.TP
-.B \-g
+.B -g, --group
Only group quotas listed in
.I /etc/mtab
or on the filesystems specified are to be checked.
.TP
-.B \-c
+.B -c, --create-files
Don't read existing quota files. Just perform a new scan and save it to disk.
.B quotacheck
also skips scanning of old quota files when they are not found.
.TP
-.B \-f
+.B -f, --force
Forces checking and writing of new quota files on filesystems with quotas
enabled. This is not recommended as the created quota files may be out of sync.
.TP
-.B \-M
+.B -M, --try-remount
This flag forces checking of filesystem in read-write mode if a remount
fails. Do this only when you are sure no process will write to a
filesystem while scanning.
.TP
-.B \-m
+.B -m, --no-remount
Don't try to remount filesystem read-only. See comment with option
.BR \-M .
.TP
-.B \-i
+.B -i, --interactive
Interactive mode. By default
.B quotacheck
exits when it finds an error. In interactive mode user is asked for
input instead. See option
.BR \-n .
.TP
-.B \-n
+.B -n, --use-first-dquot
If the quota files become corrupted, it is possible for duplicate
entries for a single user or group ID to exist. Normally in this case,
.B quotacheck
exits or asks user for input. When this option is set, the first entry found
is always used (this option works in interactive mode too).
.TP
-.B \-F \f2format-name\f1
+.B -F, --format=\f2format-name\f1
Check and fix quota files of specified format (ie. don't perform format
auto-detection). This is recommended as detection might not work well on
corrupted quota files. Possible format names are:
