offline image. It supports the following operations relevant to this document

``--add NAME``
Creates a new bitmap named ``NAME``. Optionally ``-g`` can be used to
specify granularity.
``--remove NAME``
Deletes bitmap ``NAME``.
``--merge SRCBITMAP -b SRCFILE -F SRCFILEFMT DSTBITMAP``
Merges bitmap ``SRCBITMAP`` from ``SRCFILE`` into ``DSTBITMAP``.
