       USAGE

       ffffeeeettttcccchhhh [_p_a_t_h_n_a_m_e]

       DESCRIPTION

       The ffffeeeettttcccchhhh and ssssaaaavvvveeee commands are your primary means of moving
       image data between the _E_c_h_o image buffer and the _U_n_i_x file
       system.  FFFFeeeettttcccchhhh reads an image from _p_a_t_h_n_a_m_e.  This file must
       have been created by the ssssaaaavvvveeee command.

       When given without an argument, ffffeeeettttcccchhhh uses the default name
       defined in the startup configuration file
       (ECHO_DEFAULT_NAME).

       The given file will be automatically searched for in the
       directories given in the startup configuration file
       (ECHO_FETCH_PATH).

       CAVEATS

       If an image is currently present in the buffer and that
       image has been modified to any extent, it will be necessary
       to use either ssssaaaavvvveeee or cccclllleeeeaaaarrrr before a successful ffffeeeettttcccchhhh can be
       accomplished.

       If the image has the color flag set, then the file
       _p_a_t_h_n_a_m_e.color will be read for color information.  If it
       does not exist a message will be given.  The range image
       will be un-affected.  The message may be suppressed by
       either providing the proper color file or clearing the color
       flag with ffffllllaaaaggggsssseeeetttt (see).

       A temporary file will be created in /usr/tmp (or
       ECHO_TMPDIR).
