       -d     make  a  XML based definition file used for validating NeXus files (i.e. remove the
              data).

       -o keepws
              the XML file created should preserve whitespace.

       -o table
              the XML file created should write the data in a table format where the columns  and
              rows are easily imported into spreadsheet programs.
