hcihl7test [-a-a] [-d n] [-e encoding] [-i] [-f format] 
[-V version] [-v variant] [-t test][-M message] 
[-c drivercontrol] [-n] [-F fieldname] [-w search expression]

  • -a processes all records in the file.
  • -d n shows data at detail level n. The detail level range is 0-4, where 0 is raw, unparsed data and 4 is the most detailed.
  • -e encoding is the encoding name for the data file.
