-o, --output=OUTFILE: file name of ID database output
-f, --file=OUTFILE: synonym for --output
-i, --include=LANGS: include languages in LANGS (default: "C C++ asm")
-x, --exclude=LANGS: exclude languages in LANGS -l, --lang-option=L:OPT pass OPT as a default for language L (see below)
-m, --lang-map=MAPFILE: use MAPFILE to map file names onto source language
-d, --default-lang=LANG: make LANG the default source language
-p, --prune=NAMES: exclude the named files and/or directories
-v, --verbose: report per file statistics

FILE may be a file name, or a directory name to recursively search. If no FILE is given, the current directory is searched by default. Note that the `--include' and `--exclude' options are mutually-exclusive.
