π OPTIONS π
dcm_verify accepts the following options, and yes bestie we're listing every single one, we don't skip:
-bβ input files are stored in big-endian byte order. so if your bytes are living their big-endian era, this is the flag that tells the tool to expect that. π-tβ read the file with Part 10 format. Part 10 format specifically. not Part 9, not Part 11. Part 10. periodt. π-vβ place the DCM facility in verbose mode. it gets chatty. it tells you the tea. π£οΈβ¨fileβ the name of the file to be verified. that's your one required argument, bestie, don't forget it or the whole thing just... doesn't happen. π
