       grib_ls [options] grib_file grib_file ...

OPTIONS

       -p key[:{s/d/l}],key[:{s/d/l}],...
              Declaration of keys to print.  For each key a string (key:s) or a double (key:d) or a long (key:l)
              type can be requested. Default type is string.

       -F format
              C style format for floating point values.

       -P key[:{s/d/l}],key[:{s/d/l}],...
              As -p adding the declared keys to the default list.

       -w key[:{s/d/l}]{=/!=}value,key[:{s/d/l}]{=/!=}value,...
              Where  clause.   Grib  messages are processed only if they match all the key/value constraints.  A
              valid constraint is of type key=value or key!=value.  For each key a string (key:s)  or  a  double
              (key:d) or a long (key:l) type can be specified. Default type is string.

       -j   json output

       -B order by directive
              Order by. The output will be ordered according to the order by directive.  Order by example: "step
              asc, centre desc" (step ascending and centre descending)

       -l Latitude,Longitude[,MODE,file]
              Value close to the point of a Latitude/Longitude.  Allowed values for MODE are: 4 (4 values in the
              nearest  points  are  printed) Default 1 (the value at the nearest point is printed) file (file is
              used as mask. The closer point with mask value>=0.5 is printed)

       -s key[:{s/d/l}]=value,key[:{s/d/l}]=value,...
              Key/values to set.  For each key a string (key:s) or a double (key:d) or a long (key:l)  type  can
              be defined. By default the native type is set.

       -i index
              Data value corresponding to the given index is printed.

       -n namespace
              All the keys belonging to namespace are printed.

       -m   Mars keys are printed.

       -V   Version.

       -W width
              Minimum width of each column in output. Default is 10.

       -M   Multi-field support off. Turn off support for multiple fields in single grib message.

       -T T | B | A   Message type. T->GTS, B->BUFR, A->Any (Experimental).
              The input file is interpreted according to the message type.

       -7   Does not fail when the message has wrong length
