.SH NAME
wimlib-imagex-capture, wimlib-imagex-append \- Create or append a WIM image
.SH SYNOPSIS
default, set the configuration file to
\fISOURCE\fR\\Windows\\System32\\WimBootCompress.ini if present and accessible;
however, this may still be overridden through the \fB--config\fR parameter.
+.TP
+\fB--unsafe-compact\fR
+See the documentation for this option in \fBwimlib-imagex-optimize\fR (1).
.SH NOTES
\fBwimlib-imagex append\fR does not support appending an image to a split WIM.
.PP
-It is safe to abort an \fBwimlib-imagex append\fR command partway through;
-however, after doing this, it is recommended to run \fBwimlib-imagex
-optimize\fR to remove any data that was appended to the physical WIM file but
-not yet incorporated into the structure of the WIM, unless the WIM was being
-fully rebuilt (e.g. with \fB--rebuild\fR), in which case you should delete the
-temporary file left over.
+Except when using \fB--unsafe-compact\fR, it is safe to abort a \fBwimlib-imagex

\fBwimlib-imagex\fR creates WIMs compatible with Microsoft's software
(WIMGAPI, ImageX, DISM), with some caveats:
