SYNOPSIS
       rigtestlibusb [-v] [-d device]

DESCRIPTION
       Command line utility to print a summary USB devices attached to the
       system.  More detail is obtained by use of the -v option.

OPTIONS
       This program accepts the following options.

       -v     Print more detail about the USB devices.

              Note: Unlike other Hamlib utilities, this option is not

              Testing wrapped devices is not supported on your platform

BUGS
       This woefully incomplete document.

       Limited understanding of the intended use cases of this utility.
       Perhaps more useful on systems that lack an lsusb(1) utiltiy.
