this causes extra "hidden" guestfs calls to be made, so this option is
here to allow this feature to be disabled.
+=item B<--echo-keys>
+
+When prompting for keys and passphrases, guestfish normally turns
+echoing off so you cannot see what you are typing. If you are not
+worried about Tempest attacks and there is no one else in the room
+you can specify this flag to see what you are typing.

=item B<-f file> | B<--file file>
Read commands from C<file>. To write pure guestfish
The commands in this section are guestfish convenience commands, in
other words, they are not part of the L<guestfs(3)> API.
-=head2 alloc | allocate
-
- alloc filename size
-
-This creates an empty (zeroed) file of the given size, and then adds
-so it can be further examined.
-
-For more advanced image creation, see L<qemu-img(1)> utility.
-
-Size can be specified using standard suffixes, eg. C<1M>.
-
-=head2 echo
-
- echo [params ...]
-
-This echos the parameters to the terminal.
-
-=head2 edit | vi | emacs
-
- edit filename
-
-This is used to edit a file. It downloads the file, edits it
-locally using your editor, then uploads the result.
-
-The editor is C<$EDITOR>. However if you use the alternate
-commands C<vi> or C<emacs> you will get those corresponding
-editors.
-
-NOTE: This will not work reliably for large files
-(> 2 MB) or binary files containing \0 bytes.
-
-=head2 glob
-
- glob command args...
-
-Expand wildcards in any paths in the args list, and run C<command>
-repeatedly on each matching path.
-
-See section WILDCARDS AND GLOBBING.
-
=head2 help
help
Without any parameter, this lists all commands. With a C<cmd>
parameter, this displays detailed help for a command.
-=head2 lcd
-
- lcd directory
-
-Change the local directory, ie. the current directory of guestfish
-itself.
-
-Note that C<!cd> won't do what you might expect.
-
-=head2 man | manual
-
- man
-
-Opens the manual page for guestfish.
-
-=head2 more | less
-
- more filename
-
- less filename
-
-This is used to view a file.
-
-The default viewer is C<$PAGER>. However if you use the alternate
-command C<less> you will get the C<less> command specifically.
-
-NOTE: This will not work reliably for large files
-(> 2 MB) or binary files containing \0 bytes.
-
=head2 quit | exit
This exits guestfish. You can also use C<^D> key.
-=head2 reopen
-
- reopen
-
-Close and reopen the libguestfs handle. It is not necessary to use
-this normally, because the handle is closed properly when guestfish
-exits. However this is occasionally useful for testing.
-
-=head2 sparse
-
- sparse filename size
-
-This creates an empty sparse file of the given size, and then adds
-so it can be further examined.
-
-In all respects it works the same as the C<alloc> command, except that
-the image file is allocated sparsely, which means that disk blocks are
-not assigned to the file until they are needed. Sparse disk files
-only use space when written to, but they are slower and there is a
-danger you could run out of real disk space during a write operation.
-
-For more advanced image creation, see L<qemu-img(1)> utility.
-
-Size can be specified using standard suffixes, eg. C<1M>.
-
-=head2 supported
-
- supported
-
-This command returns a list of the optional groups
-known to the daemon, and indicates which ones are
-supported by this build of the libguestfs appliance.
-
-See also L<guestfs(3)/AVAILABILITY>.
-
-=head2 time
-
- time command args...
-
-Run the command as usual, but print the elapsed time afterwards. This
-can be useful for benchmarking operations.
