OPTIONS

       --checksum=CHECKSUM
              Checksum  algorithm  to  use.   Valid  values  for  CHECKSUM are 0 for no checksum and 1 for CRC32
              (default).

       --file_metadata_compression=COMPRESSION
              Compression algorithm to use for file metadata.  Valid values for  COMPRESSION  are:  0  for  None
              (default), 1 for Deflate, 2 for Heatshrink_11_4, and 3 for Heatshrink_12_4.

       --print_metadata_compression=COMPRESSION
              Compression  algorithm  to  use  for print metadata.  Valid values for COMPRESSION are: 0 for None
              (default), 1 for Deflate, 2 for Heatshrink_11_4, and 3 for Heatshrink_12_4.

       --printer_metadata_compression=COMPRESSION
              Compression algorithm to use for printer metadata.  Valid values for COMPRESSION are: 0  for  None
              (default), 1 for Deflate, 2 for Heatshrink_11_4, and 3 for Heatshrink_12_4.

       --slicer_metadata_compression=COMPRESSION
              Compression  algorithm  to  use for slicer metadata.  Valid values for COMPRESSION are: 0 for None
              (default), 1 for Deflate, 2 for Heatshrink_11_4, and 3 for Heatshrink_12_4.

       --gcode_compression=COMPRESSION
              Compression algorithm to use for G-code.  Valid values for COMPRESSION are: 0 for None  (default),
              1 for Deflate, 2 for Heatshrink_11_4, and 3 for Heatshrink_12_4.

       --gcode_encoding=GCODE_ENCODING
              Encoding  format  to  use for G-code.  Valid values for GCODE_ENCODING are 0 for None (default), 1
              for MeatPack, and 2 for MeatPackComments.

       --metadata_encoding=METADATA_ENCODING
              Encoding format to use for metadata.  The only available value for this is 0 for INI (default).
