OSM-FILE
Overview
Show the contents of the OSM-FILE on STDOUT, usually in a pager. The output format can be set using the output-format/-f option, its shortcuts -d (debug format with colors), -o (OPL), or -x (XML), or the OSMIUM_SHOW_FORMAT environment variable.
The pager can be set with the OSMIUM_PAGER or the PAGER environment variable. If neither is set, the default less is used unless the option --no-pager is used. If the pager variables are set to an empty value or to cat, no pager is used. On Windows there is no pager support at all.
This commands reads its input file only once, ie. it can read from STDIN.
