# Usage 1: $0 <descriptor(s)> [options]
# Resolve the given descriptor(s) fully into table B descriptors, with
# name, unit, scale, reference value and width written on each line.
# With option --noexpand no expansion of D descriptors and replication
# is done. With option --partial table D descriptors are expanded only
# once and replication ignored. Option --simple is like --partial, but
# all descriptors are listed on one line without any info.
# The tables used can be chosen by the user with options --bufrtable
# and --tablepath. Default is DEFAULT_TABLE in directory
# DEFAULT_TABLE_PATH or in directory $ENV{BUFR_TABLES} if this is set.
# Usage 2: $0 --code <code_table> [options]
# Print the content of code or flag table <code_table>
# Usage 3: $0 --flag <value> --code <flag_table> [options]
# Display the bits set for flag value <value> in flag table <flag_table>.
# It is supposed the code and flag tables are contained in a file with
# same name as corresponding B and D tables except for having prefix C
# instead of B or D.

Usage 1: $0 <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
[--bufrtable <name of BUFR B or D table] Set BUFR tables
[--tablepath <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: $0 --code <code_table> [options]
Print the content of code or flag table <code_table> to screen.
Usage 3: $0 --flag <value> --code <flag_table> [options]
Display the bits set for flag value <value> for flag table <flag_table>.
For Usage 2 and 3 the only useful options are --bufrtable, --tablepath and --verbose.
