+  and destination. This option is ignored if the -n or --no-clobber option is also specified. Also, if
+  --preserve=links is also specified (like with cp -au for example), that will take precedence; consequently,
+  depending on the order that files are processed from the source, newer files in the destination may be replaced,
+  to mirror hard links in the source. which gives more control over which existing files in the destination are
+  replaced, and its value can be one of the following:
+
+  - all This is the default operation when an --update option is not specified, and results in all existing files in the destination being replaced.
+  - none This is similar to the --no-clobber option, in that no files in the destination are replaced, but also skipping a file does not induce a failure.
+  - older This is the default operation when --update is specified, and results in files being replaced if they’re older than the corresponding source file.

+cut-about = Prints specified byte or field columns from each line of stdin or the input files
+cut-usage = cut OPTION... [FILE]...
+cut-after-help = Each call must specify a mode (what to use for columns),
+  a sequence (which columns to print), and provide a data source
+
+  ### Specifying a mode
+
+  Use --bytes (-b) or --characters (-c) to specify byte mode
+
+  Use --fields (-f) to specify field mode, where each line is broken into
+  fields identified by a delimiter character. For example for a typical CSV
+  you could use this in combination with setting comma as the delimiter
+
+  ### Specifying a sequence
+
+  A sequence is a group of 1 or more numbers or inclusive ranges separated
+  by a commas.
+
+  cut -f 2,5-7 some_file.txt
+
+  will display the 2nd, 5th, 6th, and 7th field for each source line
+
+  Ranges can extend to the end of the row by excluding the second number
+
+  cut -f 3- some_file.txt
+
+  will display the 3rd field and all fields after for each source line
+
+  The first number of a range can be excluded, and this is effectively the
+  same as using 1 as the first number: it causes the range to begin at the
+  first column. Ranges can also display a single column
+
+  cut -f 1,3-5 some_file.txt
+
+  will display the 1st, 3rd, 4th, and 5th field for each source line
+
+  The --complement option, when used, inverts the effect of the sequence
+
+  cut --complement -f 4-6 some_file.txt
+
+  will display the every field but the 4th, 5th, and 6th
+
+  ### Specifying a data source
+
+  If no sourcefile arguments are specified, stdin is used as the source of
+  lines to print
+
+  If sourcefile arguments are specified, stdin is ignored and all files are
+  read in consecutively if a sourcefile is not successfully read, a warning
+  will print to stderr, and the eventual status code will be 1, but cut
+  will continue to read through proceeding sourcefiles
+
+  To print columns from both STDIN and a file argument, use - (dash) as a
+  sourcefile argument to represent stdin.
+
+  ### Field Mode options
+
+  The fields in each line are identified by a delimiter (separator)
+
+  #### Set the delimiter
+
+  Set the delimiter which separates fields in the file using the
+  --delimiter (-d) option. Setting the delimiter is optional.
+  If not set, a default delimiter of Tab will be used.
+
+  If the -w option is provided, fields will be separated by any number
+  of whitespace characters (Space and Tab). The output delimiter will
+  be a Tab unless explicitly specified. Only one of -d or -w option can be specified.
+  This is an extension adopted from FreeBSD.
+
+  #### Optionally Filter based on delimiter
+
+  If the --only-delimited (-s) flag is provided, only lines which
+  contain the delimiter will be printed
+
+  #### Replace the delimiter
+
+  If the --output-delimiter option is provided, the argument used for
+  it will replace the delimiter character in each line printed. This is
+  useful for transforming tabular data - e.g. to convert a CSV to a
+  TSV (tab-separated file)
+
+  ### Line endings
+
+  When the --zero-terminated (-z) option is used, cut sees \\0 (null) as the
+  'line ending' character (both for the purposes of reading lines and
+  separating printed lines) instead of \\n (newline). This is useful for
+  tabular data where some of the cells may contain newlines
+
+  echo 'ab\\0cd' | cut -z -c 1
+
+  will result in 'a\\0c\\0'

+     reasons) file flags.
+  - count=N : stop reading input after N ibs-sized read operations rather
+     than proceeding until EOF. See iflag=count_bytes if stopping after N bytes
+     is preferred
+  - ibs=N : the size of buffer used for reads (default: 512)
+  - if=FILE : the file used for input. When not specified, stdin is used instead
+  - iflag=FLAGS : a comma-separated list of input flags which specify how the
+     input source is treated. FLAGS may be any of the input-flags or general-flags
+     specified below.
+  - skip=N (or iseek=N) : skip N ibs-sized records into input before beginning
+     copy/convert operations. See iflag=seek_bytes if seeking N bytes is preferred.
+  - obs=N : the size of buffer used for writes (default: 512)
+  - of=FILE : the file used for output. When not specified, stdout is used
+     instead
+  - oflag=FLAGS : comma separated list of output flags which specify how the
+     output source is treated. FLAGS may be any of the output flags or general
+     flags specified below
+  - seek=N (or oseek=N) : seeks N obs-sized records into output before
+     beginning copy/convert operations. See oflag=seek_bytes if seeking N bytes is
+     preferred
+  - status=LEVEL : controls whether volume and performance stats are written to
+     stderr.
+
+    When unspecified, dd will print stats upon completion. An example is below.
+
+    ```plain
+      6+0 records in
+      16+0 records out
+      8192 bytes (8.2 kB, 8.0 KiB) copied, 0.00057009 s,
+      14.4 MB/s
+
+    The first two lines are the 'volume' stats and the final line is the
+    'performance' stats.
+    The volume stats indicate the number of complete and partial ibs-sized reads,
+    or obs-sized writes that took place during the copy. The format of the volume
+    stats is <complete>+<partial>. If records have been truncated (see
+    conv=block), the volume stats will contain the number of truncated records.
+
+    Possible LEVEL values are:
+    - progress : Print periodic performance stats as the copy proceeds.
+    - noxfer : Print final volume stats, but not performance stats.
+    - none : Do not print any stats.
+
+    Printing performance stats is also triggered by the INFO signal (where supported),
+    or the USR1 signal. Setting the POSIXLY_CORRECT environment variable to any value
+    (including an empty value) will cause the USR1 signal to be ignored.
+
+  ### Conversion Options
+
+  - ascii : convert from EBCDIC to ASCII. This is the inverse of the ebcdic
+    option. Implies conv=unblock.
+  - ebcdic : convert from ASCII to EBCDIC. This is the inverse of the ascii
+    option. Implies conv=block.
+  - ibm : convert from ASCII to EBCDIC, applying the conventions for [, ]
+    and ~ specified in POSIX. Implies conv=block.
+
+  - ucase : convert from lower-case to upper-case.
+  - lcase : converts from upper-case to lower-case.
+
+  - block : for each newline less than the size indicated by cbs=BYTES, remove
+    the newline and pad with spaces up to cbs. Lines longer than cbs are truncated.
+  - unblock : for each block of input of the size indicated by cbs=BYTES, remove
+    right-trailing spaces and replace with a newline character.
+
+  - sparse : attempts to seek the output when an obs-sized block consists of
+    only zeros.
+  - swab : swaps each adjacent pair of bytes. If an odd number of bytes is
+    present, the final byte is omitted.
+  - sync : pad each ibs-sided block with zeros. If block or unblock is
+    specified, pad with spaces instead.
+  - excl : the output file must be created. Fail if the output file is already
+    present.
+  - nocreat : the output file will not be created. Fail if the output file in
+    not already present.
+  - notrunc : the output file will not be truncated. If this option is not
+    present, output will be truncated when opened.
+  - noerror : all read errors will be ignored. If this option is not present,
+    dd will only ignore Error::Interrupted.
+  - fdatasync : data will be written before finishing.
+  - fsync : data and metadata will be written before finishing.
+
+  ### Input flags
+
+  - count_bytes : a value to count=N will be interpreted as bytes.
+  - skip_bytes : a value to skip=N will be interpreted as bytes.
+  - fullblock : wait for ibs bytes from each read. zero-length reads are still
+    considered EOF.
+
+  ### Output flags
+
+  - append : open file in append mode. Consider setting conv=notrunc as well.
+  - seek_bytes : a value to seek=N will be interpreted as bytes.
+
+  ### General Flags
+
+  - direct : use direct I/O for data.
+  - directory : fail unless the given input (if used as an iflag) or
+    output (if used as an oflag) is a directory.
+  - dsync : use synchronized I/O for data.
+  - sync : use synchronized I/O for data and metadata.
+  - nonblock : use non-blocking I/O.
+  - noatime : do not update access time.
+  - nocache : request that OS drop cache.
+  - noctty : do not assign a controlling tty.
+  - nofollow : do not follow system links.

+
+  Fields
+
+  - %s: string
+  - %b: string parsed for literals second parameter is max length
+
+  - %c: char no second parameter
+
+  - %i or %d: 64-bit integer
+  - %u: 64 bit unsigned integer
+  - %x or %X: 64-bit unsigned integer as hex
+  - %o: 64-bit unsigned integer as octal
+              second parameter is min-width, integer
+              output below that width is padded with leading zeroes
+
+  - %q: ARGUMENT is printed in a format that can be reused as shell input, escaping non-printable
+              characters with the proposed POSIX $'' syntax.
+
+  - %f or %F: decimal floating point value
+  - %e or %E: scientific notation floating point value
+  - %g or %G: shorter of specially interpreted decimal or SciNote floating point value.
+              second parameter is
+                -max places after decimal point for floating point output
+                -max number of significant digits for scientific notation output
+
+  parameterizing fields
+
+  examples:
+
+  printf '%4.3i' 7
+
+  It has a first parameter of 4 and a second parameter of 3 and will result in ' 007'
+
+  printf '%.1s' abcde
+
+  It has no first parameter and a second parameter of 1 and will result in 'a'
+
+  printf '%4c' q
+
+  It has a first parameter of 4 and no second parameter and will result in ' q'
+
+  The first parameter of a field is the minimum width to pad the output to
+  if the output is less than this absolute value of this width,
+  it will be padded with leading spaces, or, if the argument is negative,
+  with trailing spaces. the default is zero.
+
+  The second parameter of a field is particular to the output field type.
+  defaults can be found in the full substitution help below
+
+  special prefixes to numeric arguments
+
+  - 0: (e.g. 010) interpret argument as octal (integer output fields only)
+  - 0x: (e.g. 0xABC) interpret argument as hex (numeric output fields only)
+  - \': (e.g. \'a) interpret argument as a character constant
+
+  #### HOW TO USE SUBSTITUTIONS
+
+  Substitutions are used to pass additional argument(s) into the FORMAT string, to be formatted a
+  particular way. E.g.
+
+  printf 'the letter %X comes before the letter %X' 10 11
+
+  will print
+
+  the letter A comes before the letter B
+
+  because the substitution field %X means
+  'take an integer argument and write it as a hexadecimal number'
+
+  Passing more arguments than are in the format string will cause the format string to be
+  repeated for the remaining substitutions
+
+  printf 'it is %i F in %s \n' 22 Portland 25 Boston 27 New York
+
+  will print
+
+  it is 22 F in Portland
+  it is 25 F in Boston
+  it is 27 F in Boston
+
+  If a format string is printed but there are less arguments remaining
+  than there are substitution fields, substitution fields without
+  an argument will default to empty strings, or for numeric fields
+  the value 0
+
+  #### AVAILABLE SUBSTITUTIONS
+
+  This program, like GNU coreutils printf,
+  interprets a modified subset of the POSIX C printf spec,
+  a quick reference to substitutions is below.
+
+  #### STRING SUBSTITUTIONS
+
+  All string fields have a 'max width' parameter
+  %.3s means 'print no more than three characters of the original input'
+
+  - %s: string
+
+  - %b: escaped string - the string will be checked for any escaped literals from
+        the escaped literal list above, and translate them to literal characters.
+        e.g. \\n will be transformed into a newline character.
+        One special rule about %b mode is that octal literals are interpreted differently
+        In arguments passed by %b, pass octal-interpreted literals must be in the form of \\0NNN
+        instead of \\NNN. (Although, for legacy reasons, octal literals in the form of \\NNN will
+        still be interpreted and not throw a warning, you will have problems if you use this for a
+        literal whose code begins with zero, as it will be viewed as in \\0NNN form.)
+
+  - %q: escaped string - the string in a format that can be reused as input by most shells.
+        Non-printable characters are escaped with the POSIX proposed ‘$''’ syntax,
+        and shell meta-characters are quoted appropriately.
+        This is an equivalent format to ls --quoting=shell-escape output.
+
+  #### CHAR SUBSTITUTIONS
+
+  The character field does not have a secondary parameter.
+
+  - %c: a single character
+
+  #### INTEGER SUBSTITUTIONS
+
+  All integer fields have a 'pad with zero' parameter
+  %.4i means an integer which if it is less than 4 digits in length,
+  is padded with leading zeros until it is 4 digits in length.
+
+  - %d or %i: 64-bit integer
+
+  - %u: 64-bit unsigned integer
+
+  - %x or %X: 64-bit unsigned integer printed in Hexadecimal (base 16)
+              %X instead of %x means to use uppercase letters for 'a' through 'f'
+
+  - %o: 64-bit unsigned integer printed in octal (base 8)
+
+  #### FLOATING POINT SUBSTITUTIONS
+
+  All floating point fields have a 'max decimal places / max significant digits' parameter
+  %.10f means a decimal floating point with 7 decimal places past 0
+  %.10e means a scientific notation number with 10 significant digits
+  %.10g means the same behavior for decimal and Sci. Note, respectively, and provides the shortest
+  of each's output.
+
+  Like with GNU coreutils, the value after the decimal point is these outputs is parsed as a
+  double first before being rendered to text. For both implementations do not expect meaningful
+  precision past the 18th decimal place. When using a number of decimal places that is 18 or
+  higher, you can expect variation in output between GNU coreutils printf and this printf at the
+  18th decimal place of +/- 1
+
+  - %f: floating point value presented in decimal, truncated and displayed to 6 decimal places by
+        default. There is not past-double behavior parity with Coreutils printf, values are not
+        estimated or adjusted beyond input values.
+
+  - %e or %E: floating point value presented in scientific notation
+              7 significant digits by default
+              %E means use to use uppercase E for the mantissa.
+
+  - %g or %G: floating point value presented in the shortest of decimal and scientific notation
+              behaves differently from %f and %E, please see posix printf spec for full details,
+              some examples of different behavior:
+              Sci Note has 6 significant digits by default
+              Trailing zeroes are removed
+              Instead of being truncated, digit after last is rounded
+
+  Like other behavior in this utility, the design choices of floating point
+  behavior in this utility is selected to reproduce in exact
+  the behavior of GNU coreutils' printf from an inputs and outputs standpoint.
+
+  ### USING PARAMETERS
+
+  Most substitution fields can be parameterized using up to 2 numbers that can
+  be passed to the field, between the % sign and the field letter.
+
+  The 1st parameter always indicates the minimum width of output, it is useful for creating
+  columnar output. Any output that would be less than this minimum width is padded with
+  leading spaces
+  The 2nd parameter is proceeded by a dot.
+  You do not have to use parameters
+
+  ### SPECIAL FORMS OF INPUT
+
+  For numeric input, the following additional forms of input are accepted besides decimal:
+
+  Octal (only with integer): if the argument begins with a 0 the proceeding characters
+  will be interpreted as octal (base 8) for integer fields
+
+  Hexadecimal: if the argument begins with 0x the proceeding characters will be interpreted
+  will be interpreted as hex (base 16) for any numeric fields
+  for float fields, hexadecimal input results in a precision
+  limit (in converting input past the decimal point) of 10^-15
+
+  Character Constant: if the argument begins with a single quote character, the first byte
+  of the next character will be interpreted as an 8-bit unsigned integer. If there are
+  additional bytes, they will throw an error (unless the environment variable POSIXLY_CORRECT
+  is set)

+  INTEGER may also be -l STRING, which evaluates to the length of STRING.
+
+  NOTE: Binary -a and -o are inherently ambiguous.
+  Use test EXPR1 && test EXPR2 or test EXPR1 || test EXPR2 instead.
+
+  NOTE: [ honors the --help and --version options, but test does not.
+  test treats each of those as it treats any other nonempty STRING.
+
+  NOTE: your shell may have its own version of test and/or [, which usually supersedes the version described here.
+  Please refer to your shell's documentation for details about the options it supports.
