👑 Option of hachoir-subfile 👑

• -h, --help — show this help message and exit. classic. the little cry for help every tool has 🥺
• --offset=OFFSET — skip first bytes of input file. like, we're not reading from the top, we're starting further in, no cap ✨
• --size=SIZE — maximum size of input file. it caps how much we're even looking at 🔥
• --category=CATEGORY — parser category list, and yes the categories get separated with a comma. so: comma-separated list, bestie 🍓
• --parser=PARSER — parser identifier list, also separated with a comma. same vibe, different filter 💜
• --version — display version and exit. quick little "who am I" moment 💅
• --quiet — be quiet 🤫 literally. that's it. that's the option.
• --profiler — run profiler. main character energy for your performance data 📊
• --debug — enable debug mode. for when you need to see everything and I mean everything 👀

heads up bestie: --offset and --size both take values, and --category / --parser want their lists comma-separated. keep those commas in there, iykyk 🧚
