   -a, --address   Print raw data address.  If dataset is contiguous, address\n\
                   is offset in file of beginning of raw data. If chunked,\n\
                   returned list of addresses indicates offset of each chunk.\n\
                   Must be used with -v, --verbose option.\n\
                   Provides no information for non-dataset objects.\n\
   -d, --data      Print the values of datasets\n\
   --enable-error-stack\n\
                   Prints messages from the HDF5 error stack as they occur.\n\
   --follow-symlinks\n\

                   to display target object information.\n\
                   Without this option, h5ls identifies a symbolic link\n\
                   as a soft link or external link and prints the value\n\
                   assigned to the symbolic link; it does not provide any\n\

                   that do not resolve to an existing object (dataset, group,\n\
                   or named datatype).\n\
                   If any dangling link is found, this situation is treated\n\
                   as an error and h5ls returns an exit code of 1.\n\
   -f, --full      Print full path names instead of base names\n\
   -g, --group     Show information about a group, not its contents\n\
   -l, --label     Label members of compound datasets\n\
   -r, --recursive List all groups recursively, avoiding cycles\n\
   -s, --string    Print 1-byte integer datasets as ASCII\n\
   -S, --simple    Use a machine-readable output format\n\
   -wN, --width=N  Set the number of columns of output\n\
   -v, --verbose   Generate more verbose output\n\
   -V, --version   Print version number and exit\n\
   --vfd=DRIVER    Use the specified virtual file driver\n\
   -x, --hexdump   Show raw data in hexadecimal format\n\
\n\
  file/OBJECT\n\
    Each object consists of an HDF5 file name optionally followed by a\n\
    slash and an object name within the file (if no object is specified\n\
    within the file then the contents of the root group are displayed).\n\
    The file name may include a printf(3C) integer format such as\n\
    \"%%05d\" to open a file family.\n\

  Deprecated Options\n\
    The following options have been deprecated in HDF5. While they remain\n\
    available, they have been superseded as indicated and may be removed\n\
    from HDF5 in the future. Use the indicated replacement option in all\n\
    new work; where possible, existing scripts, et cetera, should also be\n\
    updated to use the replacement option.\n\
\n\
   -E or --external   Follow external links.\n\
                      Replaced by --follow-symlinks.\n\
   -e, --errors       Show all HDF5 error reporting\n\
