+.B \-D
+Optimize directories in filesystem. This option causes e2fsck to
+try to optimize all directories, either by reindexing them if the
+filesystem supports directory indexing, or by sorting and compressing
+directories for smaller directories, or for filesystems using
+traditional linear directories.
+.IP
+Even without the
+.B \-D
+option,
+.B e2fsck
+may sometimes optimize a few directories --- for example, if
+directory indexing is enabled and a directory is not indexed and would
+benefit from being indexed, or if the index structures are corrupted
+and need to be rebuilt. The
+.B \-D
+option forces all directories in the filesystem to be optimized. This can
+sometimes make them a little smaller and slightly faster to search, but
+in practice, you should rarely need to use this option.
+.IP
+The
+.B \-D
+option will detect directory entries with duplicate names in a single
+directory, which e2fsck normally does not enforce for performance reasons.
+.TP
+.BI \-E " extended_options"
+Set e2fsck extended options. Extended options are comma
+separated, and may take an argument using the equals ('=') sign. The
+following options are supported:
+.RS 1.2i
+.TP
+.BI ea_ver= extended_attribute_version
+Assume the format of the extended attribute blocks in the filesystem is
+the specified version number. The version number may be 1 or 2. The
+default extended attribute version format is 2.
