DESCRIPTION
     Browse  for  mDNS/DNS-SD  network	services  and browsing domains using the
     Avahi daemon.

OPTIONS
     Specify a DNS-SD service type (e.g. _http._tcp) to browse for on  the  com-
     mand  line, or -a to browse for all available service types. Items that ap-
     pear on the network are prefixed with "+", items that  disappear  are  pre-
     fixed with "-". If --resolve is passed items that are resolved are prefixed
     with "=".

     -a | --all
	    Browse for all service types registered on the LAN, not just the one
	    specified on the command line.

     -D | --browse-domains
	    Browse  for  browsing domains instead for services. avahi-browse-do-
	    mains is equivalent to avahi-browse --browse-domains

     -d | --domain= DOMAIN
	    Browse in the specified domain. If omitted avahi-browse will  browse
	    in the default browsing domain (usually: local)

     -v | --verbose
	    Enable verbose mode.

     -t | --terminate
	    Terminate after dumping a more or less complete list.

     -c | --cache
	    Terminate after dumping all entries available in the cache.

     -l | --ignore-local
	    Ignore local services, show only remote services.

     -r | --resolve
	    Automatically resolve services found.

     -f | --no-fail
	    Don't  fail  if the daemon is not found running. Instead, wait until
	    it appears. If it disconnects, try to reconnect.

     -p | --parsable
	    Make output easily parsable for usage in scripts. If enabled  fields
	    are  separated  by	semicolons (;), service names are escaped. It is
	    recommended to combine this with --no-db-lookup.

     -k | --no-db-lookup
	    Don't lookup services types in service type database.

     -b | --dump-db
	    Dump the service type database (may be combined with -k)

     -h | --help
	    Show help.

     -V | --version
	    Show version information.
