--connection-timeout VALUE
Connection timeout (in seconds). The default value is '30'.

--delimiter VALUE
The delimiter to use when displaying delimited (long) results.

For displaying tabular or delimited results, it includes the column
headers. For displaying XML results, it returns the HTTP headers from the
