       Copyright (C) 2014-2022 Bartek Fabiszewski.

       Released under LGPL version 3 or any later (same as libmobi).

       The program handles .prc, .mobi, .azw, .azw3, .azw4, some  .pdb  documents.  It  is  powered  by  libmobi
       library.

       Invoked  without arguments prints document metadata and exits. If fileout is specified, modified document
       will be saved with this name, otherwise original input filein will be modified.

       A list of flags and their descriptions:

       -ameta=value[,meta=value,...]
                add (append) metadata

       -dmeta[,meta,...]
                delete metadata

       -smeta=value[,meta=value,...]
                set (replace) metadata

       meta     for a list of valid named meta keys try mobimeta {-a | -d | -s} ?.  If meta  is  an  integer  it
                will be treated as a numeric EXTH record key (expert usage).

       value    new value that will be set for a given meta key

       -ppid   set pid for decryption

       -Pserial
                set device serial number for decryption

       -h       show usage summary and exit

       -v       show version and exit

       For diagnostics libmobi must be configured with --enable-debug option.

       The following command will set new title, new author and will delete all publisher metadata (if any).

             %mobimeta-stitle="Mytitle",author="Myname"-dpublisherexample.mobi

       The following command appends EXTH record identified by its numeric key 204 with numeric value 201.

             %mobimeta-a204=201example.mobi

       The following command will list valid meta named keys.

             %mobimeta-a?
