The new output format is the default when no command is +specified or when the option \fB\-\-output\fR is used. + +The default output is subject to change. So whenever possible, you should +avoid using default outputs in your scripts. Always explicitly define expected +columns by using the \fB\-\-output\fR option together with a columns list in +environments where a stable output is required. + + +.SH OPTIONS +.TP +\fB\-J\fR, \fB\-\-json\fR +Use JSON output format. +.TP +\fB\-n\fR, \fB\-\-noheadings\fR +Do not print a header line. +.TP +\fB\-o\fR, \fB\-\-output\fR +Specify which output columns to print.
