.IP \[bu] 3
Create a stand-alone WIM from a directory or NTFS volume (\fBimagex capture\fR)
.IP \[bu] 4
Because Microsoft designed the WIM file format to accomodate Windows-specific
-and NTFS-specific features, \fBimagex\fR must have two separate image capture
-and application modes (although the \fBimagex\fR subcommands for the modes are
-the same): one for general image capture and application, and one for the
-capture or application of an image specifically from/to an NTFS volume.
+and NTFS-specific features, wimlib must have two separate image capture and
+application modes (although the \fBimagex\fR subcommands for the modes are the
+same): one for general image capture and application, and one for the capture or
+application of an image specifically from/to an NTFS volume.
+
+Note: the above applies to UNIX builds. On the Windows builds of wimlib, there
+is only one image capture and application mode, similar to Microsoft's ImageX.
.IP \[bu]
Microsoft's version has some weird limitations, like it won't let you extract a
WIM on a shared folder, and it requires some commands to be run only from
Windows PE and not from regular Windows. This version does not have these
-unusual limitations, although it won't actually run on Windows anyway.
+unusual limitations.
.IP \[bu]
There are bugs in Microsoft's WIM library and I obviously have not included the
-same bugs in wimlib, although in some cases I have had to work around some
-bugs for compatibility purposes.

+.IP \[bu]
+wimlib's \fBimagex\fR offers the extra command \fBimagex optimize\fR,
+which lets you easily remove wasted space in a WIM (which can arise after
+a WIM image is appended or mounted read-write).
.IP \[bu]
-wimlib's \fBimagex\fR offers the extra commands \fBimagex optimize\fR and
-\fBimagex join\fR to easily remove holes in a WIM or join the parts of a split
-WIM, respectively.
+wimlib's \fBimagex\fR also offers the command \fBimagex join\fR, which lets you
+easily join the parts of a split WIM.
.IP \[bu]
wimlib's \fBimagex apply\fR supports keeping files hard-linked or symlinked
across WIM images when extracted from a WIM. So you can, for example, extract
-different versions of Windows from an install.wim without using much extra space.
+different versions of Windows from an install.wim without using much extra
+space. (Note: this functionality is only available in UNIX builds of wimlib.)
.IP \[bu]
wimlib's \fBimagex capture\fR supports combining multiple separate directories
.IP \[bu]
wimlib's \fBimagex capture\fR supports a special mode where UNIX file modes,
-owners, and groups are stored.
+owners, and groups are stored. (Note: this functionality is only available on
+UNIX builds.)
.IP \[bu]
wimlib's \fBimagex mount\fR and \fBimagex mountrw\fR are much faster than
Microsoft's versions for some reason. I don't know what they have their program
-do that takes so long to simply set up a mountpoint.

+.IP \[bu]
+wimlib's \fBimagex mount\fR supports mounting an image from a split WIM, but
+Microsoft's software does not. (Note: this functionality is only available on
+UNIX builds.)
