DESCRIPTION
Get values of some header keys from a BUFR file. It is similar to bufr_ls, but fails returning an error code when an error occurs (e.g. key not found).
USAGE
bufr_get [options] file file ...
OPTIONS
-f
Force. Force the execution not to fail on error.
-p key[:{s|d|i}],key[:{s|d|i}],...
Declaration of keys to print. For each key a string (key:s), a double (key:d) or an integer (key:i) type can be requested. Default type is string.
-F format
C style format for floating-point values.
-P key[:{s|d|i}],key[:{s|d|i}],...
As -p adding the declared keys to the default list.
-w key[:{s|d|i}]{=|!=}value,key[:{s|d|i}]{=|!=}value,...
Where clause. 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), a double (key:d) or an integer (key:i) type can be specified. Default type is string. In the value you can also use the forward-slash character '/' to specify an OR condition (i.e. a logical disjunction) Note: only one -w clause is allowed.
-n namespace
All the keys belonging to namespace are printed.
-s key[:{s|d|i}]=value,key[:{s|d|i}]=value,...
Key/values to set. For each key a string (key:s), a double (key:d) or an integer (key:i) type can be defined. By default the native type is set.
-V
Version.
-W width
Minimum width of each column in output. Default is 10.
-m
Mars keys are printed.
-g
