     Profile query functions:

     -gg key
     --ggeettPPrrooppeerrttyy key
           Output the property value for key to stdout.

     -XX tag tagFile
     --eexxttrraaccttTTaagg tag tagFile
           Write a profile tag element to tagFile.

     -vv
     --vveerriiffyy
           Verify any profile problems and log output to stdout.

     Image query functions:

     -gg key
     --ggeettPPrrooppeerrttyy key
