@node Common Options
@chapter Common Options
The following command-line options are supported by all of the
programs described in this manual.
@table @env
@item @@@var{file}
Read command-line options from @var{file}. The options read are
inserted in place of the original @@@var{file} option. If @var{file}
does not exist, or cannot be read, then the option will be treated
literally, and not removed.
Options in @var{file} are separated by whitespace. A whitespace
character may be included in an option by surrounding the entire
option in either single or double quotes. Any character (including a
backslash) may be included by prefixing the character to be included
character with a backslash. The @var{file} may itself contain
additional @@@var{file} options; any such options will be processed
recursively.
@item --help
Display the command-line options supported by the program.
@item --version
Display the version number of the program.
