Usage 1: /metno/local/bin/bufrresolve.pl <descriptor(s)> [options]

where options (may be abbreviated, e.g. --h or -h for --help) are

        [--partial]                    Expand D descriptors only once, ignoring
                                       replication
        [--simple]                     Like --partial, but displaying the resulting
                                       descriptors on one line
        [--noexpand]                   Don't expand D descriptors at all
        [--table <name of BUFR B or D table]  Set BUFR tables
        [--bufrpath <path to BUFR tables>]  Set BUFR table path
        [--verbose]                    Display path and tables used
        [--help]                       Print this help info and exit

--simple, --noexpand and --partial are mutually exclusive (full expansion is default).
Without --simple will display each B descriptor with name, unit, scale,
reference value and data width (in bits).

Usage 2: /metno/local/bin/bufrresolve.pl --code <code_table>

Print the content of code table <code_table> to screen.

Usage 3: /metno/local/bin/bufrresolve.pl --flag <value> --code <code_table>
