-All the numerical options, if not specified otherwise, accept in input
-a string representing a number, which may contain one of the
-SI unit prefixes, for example 'K', 'M', 'G'.
-If 'i' is appended after the prefix, binary prefixes are used,
-which are based on powers of 1024 instead of powers of 1000.
-The 'B' postfix multiplies the value by 8, and can be
-appended after a unit prefix or used alone. This allows using for
-example 'KB', 'MiB', 'G' and 'B' as number postfix.

Options which do not take arguments are boolean options, and set the
corresponding value to true. They can be set to false by prefixing
-with "no" the option name, for example using "-nofoo" in the
-command line will set to false the boolean option with name "foo".
+the option name with "no". For example using "-nofoo"
+will set the boolean option with name "foo" to false.
