--debug Print verbose log messages during processing.
-D
--decode Decode incoming Base64 stream into binary data.
-h
--help Print usage summary and exit.
-i input_file
--input=input_file Read input from input_file. Default is stdin; passing - also represents stdin.
-o output_file
--output=output_file
Write output to output_file. Default is stdout; passing - also represents stdout.
