+Number of threads to use for compressing data.  Default: autodetect (number of
+processors).  Note: if exporting to an uncompressed WIM, or exporting to a WIM

+When exporting image(s) to an existing WIM: rebuild the entire WIM rather than

+.SH NOTES
+
+Unless --rebuild is specified, aborting an \fBimagex export\fR command mid-way
+through has a small chance of corrupting the destination WIM file.  However, a
+precaution is taken against this, so it should be very unlikely.  In the event
+of an aborted \fBimagex export\fR, \fBimagex optimize\fR can be run to remove
+extra data that may have been partially appended to the physical destination WIM
+file but not yet incorporated into the structure of the WIM.

 .SH EXAMPLES
 Export the second image of 'boot.wim' to the new WIM file 'new.wim', and
 change the compression type to maximum, if it wasn't maximum already:
