.SH NAME
@IMAGEX_PROGNAME@-capture, @IMAGEX_PROGNAME@-append \- Create or append a WIM image
.SH SYNOPSIS
You may also specify the actual names of the compression algorithms, "XPRESS"
and "LZX", instead of "fast" and "maximum", respectively.
.TP
+\fB--compress-slow\fR
+Like \fB--compress\fR=\fImaximum\fR, but spend even more time compressing the
+data to achieve a very slightly better compression ratio.
+.TP
+\fB--chunk-size\fR=\fISIZE\fR
+Set the WIM compression chunk size to \fISIZE\fR. Using this option is not
+recommended because WIM chunk sizes other than the default of 32768 are not
+supported by Microsoft's software. But if you decide to use this option
+regardless, you can choose a chunk size that is any power of 2 greater than or
+equal to 2^15 (32768) up to 2^21 (2097152) for LZX ("maximum") compression or
+2^26 (67108864) for XPRESS ("fast") compression. Larger chunks mean larger LZ77
+dictionaries and better compression ratios on sufficiently large files, but
+slower random access.
+.TP
\fB--threads\fR=\fINUM_THREADS\fR
Number of threads to use for compressing data. Default: autodetect (number of
available CPUs).
Specify a string to use in the <FLAGS> element of the XML data for the new
image.
.TP
-\fB--verbose\fR
-Print the names of files and directories as they are captured.
-.TP
\fB--dereference\fR
(UNIX-like systems only) Follow symbolic links and archive the files they point
to, rather than archiving the links themselves.
