Available mode options:

   * - :ref:`-(BG|BackGround) <BG>`
     - runs in background; suppresses screen output and errors
   * - :ref:`-(EM|EMailNotice) <EM>`
     - sends an email summary (including any errors) when the action completes or aborts
   * - :ref:`-(MD|MyDataset) <MD>`
     - allows any specialist to set GDEXDB information, regardless of dataset ownership
   * - :ref:`-(NE|NoEmail) <NE>`
     - suppresses email notification on failure
   * - :ref:`-(NT|NoTrim) <NT>`
     - skips trimming of spaces and comments from input values, speeding up input file processing
   * - :ref:`-(RD|RemoveDir) <RD>`
     - removes empty directories after file changes
   * - :ref:`-(RO|ResetOrder) <RO>`
     - resets display order indices to match the order files are given per :ref:`-SF <SF>`. Alternatively, use :ref:`-ON <ON>` (-OrderNames) to reorder all files in the dataset and affected groups
   * - :ref:`-(SC|SetChecksum) <SC>`
     - computes MD5 checksums for files on the GDEX Server and saves them to GDEXDB

Saved file names must be provided via :ref:`-SF <SF>` (-SavedFile) unless :ref:`-ON <ON>`
(-OrderNames) is used to reorder files. The number of values supplied
to other :ref:`Info options <section5>` must match the number of file names, except for
options that accept a single shared value, such as :ref:`-GI <GI>` (-GroupIndex),
:ref:`-AF <AF>` (-ArchiveFormat), :ref:`-DF <DF>` (-DataFormat), and :ref:`-ST <ST>` (-SavedFileType).

If no group index is specified and :ref:`-PO <PO>` (-PatternOffset) is present,
file names are matched against group patterns saved via :ref:`-SG <SG>`
(-SetGroup) to determine the group index automatically.
