Common Output Formats
When retrieving information, the primary kernel configuration
commands produce output in three basic output formats: table, verbose,
and parsable.
By default, the commands produce a short table format. This is a format
that gives one line for each item being described. Only the most
commonly used information is included, in order to allow the output to fit
on one line on most terminals.
With a -v (verbose) option, the commands produce a verbose output
format. This format gives all available information for each item being
described, taking multiple lines to do so. A blank line separates the items
in the output.
-D (Difference) Display only elements for which there is a change
being held for next boot.
ooo
-h (hold) Hold the requested changes for next boot. o o o
-K (Keep) Do not back up the currently running configuration. Keep
the existing backup unmodified.
ooo
-P (Parse) Use the special “parsable” output format. o o o
-S (Set) Display only elements that have been set to something
other than default.
ooo
-v (verbose) Display items using verbose output format. o o o
