of arguments, no separator is necessary between commands -- just specify as much commands as you would like to execute.

Prints a short help.
-v | --version
Prints the version number to standard output.
-d | --datadir datadir
Uses datadir instead of ~/.usbprog.
-o | --offline
Don't try to connect to the internet. Use the cached firmware and index file(s) only.
-D | --debug
Enable debugging output.
COMMANDS
